Greetings scythelord,

I would choose the k501ux soley because of the gpu. Check out the benchmarks in the link above. For gaming your i5 will be plenty in conjuction with your gtx 950. Remember when you get your unit, update your bios to the latest version 209. Then update your graphics driver via Nvidia control panel. Pop in a SSD of your choice and you are good to go! Good luck and happy shopping!
