you will never see gtx950 for nothing less than 1000 dollar
You will get Gtx950M notebook below $1000 only it will not be an HP. Asus,Acer even Msi.i can drop links if you will like to see them.

His Cpu might be why he lags a little bit. I'm guessing its dual core??

See! That cpu is limiting the power of his gpu. Thats why he gets lag in his games. I think this is known as bottleneck in gaming. Kimco pls correct me if i'm wrong...

That option is only for PCs wit both dedicated and integrated GPUs. That way, u're telling the PC to run the game on the selected GPU. That doesn't mean the CPU isn't running in the background na...

You're correct. A quad core would have better performance than a dual core of the same generation, Even if they have the same speed. The gt 950m should be plenty powerful enough to play 2013/14 games on medium.

The cpu is always needed. The only thing you're switching between is integrated and discrete graphics

U cant run games with only gpu, the cpu is highly required, seeing dat d procesing flows from CPU - GPU - Screen or monitor. Cpu will handle stuffs in games such as d A.I n all. The cpu delegates tasks to the gpu too. What ur probably talking about is a system wit dedicated graphics, which is switchable, between the integrated and d dedicated gpu.

Of course the gpu is highly tasked wen it coms to high quality graphics rendering.

Yh! Dat cpu is just not strong enough and incapable of keeping up wit the gpu. Hence, the lag..

Using a desired GPU has nothing to do wit the CPU. The CPU ll always do its own work regardless of the GPU being used...

To explain bottlenecking better, the bottle is your GPU, and the pump is the CPU.

The pump drives water into the bottle. The lower your GPU, the smaller the neck of the bottle. Even with a 1 million watt pump, you can't force more than the narrow neck allows.

With a good GPU and CPU, you've got a big neck and powerful pump. Water is flowing beautifully.

With the best GPU and a mediocre CPU, you've got the largest neck ever, but water is merely trickling into it. That's bottlenecking.
