Yesterday i went to research Gaming Laptops come with GTX960M, until i still don't have any solution which one is better for gaming. Do you guys know what's different with 4GB DDR5, 2GB DDR5, 2GB DDR3?? Is it same performance and come many version? cause my budget just around RM5kl only...

DDR5 is better and faster thn DDR3 video memory..of cos..if u can..always aim for more video memory...so..get 4gb ddr5..

U 4get xps 15 n Inspiron 7559

oh, but may i know any different with 4GB DDR5 and 2GB DDR5?? 4GB & 2GB any different on game? or its same just a little bit??

Actually GTX-960M is not really enough if you want to set all games with the highest Ultra Setting.

Recommended source for GTX-970M (6GB edition) which around 60 to 70% faster than GTX-960M.

For RAM wise, I read somewhere 2GB is not really enough for certain new graphics intensive games.

well..if u have 2GB of vram..u cant for example..for certain games..u cant set some graphical settings to high..let alone ultra...newer games are getting more vram intensive...thus is better to hv 4GB compared to 2GB of vram...

but if u dont mind playing on high + med settings...2GB should be enuf for u...if u aim for for 60fps...u might want to reduce in game resolution to 1366 x 768...rather thn 1080p..

for normal game u wont feel the different, but if go for heavy game such as COD/BF4, u will feel the different

Mostly these VRAM are used for texture filtering and rendering, VRAM hungry games such as crysis 3 has huge terrain (geometry, vegetation...etc) will need you to equip a gpu with greater memory.

Hi you can look at this
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3825890

dont think you can notice much difference bro unless you are gaming at ultra high settings.
the ram used to preload renders and textures but in this case 960M is better for FHD gaming at high settings so 2GB dah cukup

So thats mean 4GB or 2Gb are same just what kind of game i play right? And DDR5, DDR3 are just for version only right?

Ddr5>ddr3

4gb>2gb

The reason why I suggest GTX 970M if you want to play games in Full HD Ultra Setting.

Price-performance wise, GTX970/970M certainly does its job too! However, my suggestion is to wait for this year's nvidia pascal architecture GPUs (if TS can wait for several months more).

There is a no ending wait. The 900 series just start flooding market, don't think so soon even after announcing.

u can look into MSI GE62 6QC, this model c/w Skylake CPU, Nvidia GTX960 Graphic card 2GB DDR5, 4GB DDR4 Memory, built in steel series KB, bundle with other gamer's need features. And also within ur budget.

I am selling my Illegear z5 laptop

PM me if interested. Tq

DDR5 definitely faster.. do check out other specs & gaming features as well..
Seems like MSI GE62 6QC is quite good & within your budget

Do not buy the DDR3 version, they'll be much more performance penalty compared to 2GB vs 4GB. In fact, the 2GB is quite enough for the 960M today because setting graphic quality higher which requires 4GB, and you're still bottleneck by slow GPU core.

Suggestion:
Dell Inspiron 15 7559 RM3699
+ 256GB SSD SATA & 4GB RAM RM700
Total RM4400.
