That for graphics performance there's a lot of memory access. DDR5 is that much better so it should win any benchmark and deliver better 3D (aka gaming) results.
But let's check that GPU.
https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-R7-M445-Gaming-Benchmarks-and-Specs.195642.0.html finds this is unacceptable for gamers I know.
OK for say The Sims.
The DDR3 based model at https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-R7-M440-Benchmarks-and-Specs.169455.0.html shows so much red that this would be for say video play and spreadsheets.
Hello. This is my first post on this site. The reason I am here is because I needed help choosing between these laptops I found on the net with same price tag but little different specifications from more tech savvy people.
So the first laptop specs are as follows:
# 7th Generation Intel® Core™ i5-7200U Processor (3MB Cache, up to 3.10 GHz)
# Windows 10 Home 64-bit English
# 8GB Single Channel DDR4 2400MHz, up to 16GB
# 256GB Solid State Drive
# AMD Radeon™ R7 M445 Graphics 4G GDDR5
Second laptop specs:
# Intel Core i7-7500U 2.7GHz to 3.5GHz with Turbo Boost
# Windows 10 (64 bit)
# 8GB RAM
# AMD Radeon R7 M445 4GB DDR3.
# 1TB HDD
So both are for the same price and the two differences I was concerned with are the processor and gpu. So the processor is better on the second one but apparently since the first has a DDR5 gpu, its much better than the DDR3 on the second laptop? which should i buy between these laptops and if you could also explain why. thank you.
