Overwatch: Ultra settings at 1080p, average of 40FPS.

Rise of the Tomb Raider: High settings at 1080p, average of 23FPS (Drop it down to low-med and it'll be perfectly fine).

Starwars Battlefront: Ultra settings at 1080p, average of 34FPS.

Fallout 4: Ultra settings at 1080p, average of 25FPS.

GTA 5: High settings at 1080p, average of 43FPS.

Battlefield 4: Ultra settings at 1080p, average of 34FPS.

 

Now, this is a laptop priced around $1000 USD, it's not aimed at the people who want to run every game maxed out at 1080p+ 60fps+, it's aimed at people who want to be able to get work done on the go, as well as some casual gaming.

 

Drop the settings from ultra to high, or high to medium, and the framerates will have a pretty nice improvement.

Hmm i was under the impression that the GTX 960m was less powerfull then that, how reliable is that benchmarking website if i may ask? (if it is reliable than im going to use it from now on)

Essentially the same in terms of specs except it's only 1080p and has a 17.3" display, so it'll be a little less portable.

Dell 7559

Lenovo Y700

 

If you want premium stuff and long battery life

You don't need an i7, or 4K, though the inspiron does have an IPS touchscreen display, so that's a bonus.

Eh i never really like touchscreens so i might save on money by just going 1080
