    I'm buying a T540p with the 3k IPS dislay, my intended use is mostly Photoshop (and watching movies).

    Will I get better performance taking the i7-4700MQ, or the i5-4200M combined with the Nvidia GeForce 730M card?
    These two options are more or less the same price, and taking i7+GPU is too much for my wallet.

    Thanks for the help!
