ya bro this will be a good laptop for gaming,,
but take my advice,, after buying,, don't update the graphics drivers,, otherwise optimus will stop working,,
so better never install nvidia geforce experience

that one has 2gb ddr3 gt 740m graphics while y50 has ddr5 860m graphics (ddr5 is really advantageous )
also the processor is i7 4700mq while y50 has i7 4710mq (difference in heating problem..)

also there's no problem if it's touch or not...
DELL ALIENWARE IS VERY MUCH COSTLY...

I HAVE somewhere learnt that in y50 if drivers are not updated then the latest gtx 860m (launched march/april 2014)will not run properly ,,

also there's difference in graphics card!!
and both y510p and y50 are similarly priced,,so i think y50 can be a good buy?
im using lenovo y510p....my mousepad is crappy and its hard to play games with that. so if u r buying any lenovo laps check the mousepad if u r buying in store and if u use gamepad or external mouse to play then theres no problem....search the google about lenovos mousepad and u'll know...
