I'm buying a multimedia laptop, i5+/GPU 2GB (GF840+)/15,6"

I will add the Samsung 850 EVO 120GB or 250GB (haven't decided yet) and make sure I have 8GB of RAM. I'd like to use my laptop for multimedia and to be able to play a game if I want to, even on low settings (GTA V, CoD, BF, etc.)

My choices atm:
Lenovo Z50-70 - € 491,07
1920 x 1080, glare
Intel Core i5-4210U 2x 1.70 GHz
NVIDIA GeForce 840M 2.0 GB
4 GB RAM, 8 GB SSD, 500 GB HDD

ASUS X555LN-XO500D - € 547,46
Display: 1366 x 768, non-glare
Intel Core i5-5200U 2x 2.20 GHz
NVIDIA GeForce 840M 2.0 GB
8 GB RAM, 500 GB HDD

ASUS F555LN-DM267H - € 552,59
Display: 1920 x 1080, non-glare
Intel Core i5-4210U 2x 1.70 GHz
NVIDIA GeForce 840M 2.0 GB
4 GB RAM, 500 GB HDD
+ Win 8.1

So the ones with 4GB ram I'd buy ram (SO-DIMM 1600MHz 4GB for around 20€ and SSD Samsung 850 120GB - 75€ or 250GB - 115€). Full-HD or not is not as important. Is out there anything better for the price?

2) Can I take the SSHD disk out of Lenovo and make it external (like wiht HDD) and put in the SSD as primary? Or is that only possible with HDD to make them extenral?

Many thanks.
