Hi, I am currently looking at two laptops which seems to have very similar specs so I am not sure which is better overall.

The main point of difference I can see are the graphics cards:

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M 2GB GDDR5

AMD Radeon™ R7 M440 Graphics (4 GB DDR3 dedicated)

Of these, which is a better card.

The other specs are below in-case anything stands out.

For your GPU question, the GTX 950m is better according to all the benchmarks and comparison i have seen. Check the link below to see the specification comparison for yourself. Overall i prefer Asus laptops and since the GPU is better that would be my pick. Everything else seems also identical between them other than the GPU. The RAM being upgradeable on the Asus is another valid reason to choose it as 16GB is becoming standard for gaming now and probably will be for desktop applications in the coming years. Hope this helps :)
