Its actually newer,and faster than wat i currently have, but the graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M switchable 2 GB DDR3 In my current laptop I had a 2GB AMD Radeon™ HD 7690M GDDR5 Is it worth my time trying to get them to upgrade me to GDDR5? (I can accept/deny the laptop they offer me, but I just wanna know if its worth it). Thanks Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/51101-gddr5-or-ddr3/

Regardless though the 750M is a lot better than the 7690. Its got a higher clock rate. Higher memory bandwidth and more render processors.

It comes in both ;O I guess I will ask to see if they can get me the GDDR5 one. But if not I'm not going to argue.. since its already an upgrade!
