The other specs of the laptops are identical otherwise

 

i7 4720HQ
8gb ddr3
1920X1080 screen

 

 

Just wondering if i should go with the slightly less powerful graphics card but can handle higher textures or is the graphics power difference worth it on the gtx 965m.

oh and the gtx 965 is about 100 dollars more expensive

The difference in performance is almost non existent, so go with the 4GB version. I've had people tell me that 'your GTX 650ti can't use all 2GB of vRAM' and guess what? 1.8GB usage at 1024x768.

2GB. Card can't really handle much more anyway and won't really be able to use it.
