Looking at 2 laptops. They both use desktop cpu's. one has the z97, and is a bit cheaper. while the other one is an lga 1151.

since they are laptops, i won't overclock much. and gaming differences between 4790k and 6700k isn't really big. 

But, i'm thinking. if i get the one with the 6700k. i might be able to upgrade later. 

Will later (and better) intel cpu's fit the new socket?

The laptops also use MXM gpu's. and would be cool to have a laptop i easily could upgrade in 2-3 years.

most likely the 6700k will be the best part for lga 1151

 

that said, it'll be faster than the 4790k by a decent bit already.
