Hi guys, i need help, I'm going to get a notebook soon.
The question is simple, i want to play GTA 5 online, on medium-high settings and i want it to be smooth.
Which is better, 5th Gen Intel Core i5-5200U with a GTX 950m
vs AMD Kaveri FX-7600P Processor 2.7GHz with an R9 M280x

According to benchmark sites the GTX 950m is more powerful than the R9 m280x, however I'm wondering if the large gap in power of the CPU can offset that and make it even better for gaming. Rather annoyingly i cant find any videos on youtube of GTA 5 with the R9 m280x.

I don't care about brands, i don't care about electricity consumption, no i cant buy a desktop and bring it everywhere with me, no i cant buy something more expensive, otherwise this discussion wouldn't have taken place.
the two notebook specs are here
ASUS K501LX-NB52 Gaming Laptop Intel Core i5 5200U (2.20GHz) 8GB Memory 1TB HDD 128GB SSD NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M 15.6" Windows 8.1 64-Bit - Newegg.com
