Hey guys, I'm looking towards to get a good PC and don't know which is better.
GeForce 820m 2GB Graphic Card with 8GB Ram 1TB storage
Radeon R9 M270 16GB Ram 512GB SSD or 1TB HDD

Now which is better? Cause all I'm going to to do is record gameplays with my Elgato and livestream.
Talking about livestream and having the Elgato program open. 2 programs running cause ima open up google chrome to see my livestream going good.
Also maybe 3 programs for playing music if reasonable.

How much ram is best if I run 2-3 programs.? 8Gb with GeForce or 16gb Radeon R9?

Those look like laptop systems. The graphics themselves have video RAM not the system RAM that is stated by the 8GB and 16GB. You can put the model of the graphics solutions into google and look at benchmarks to see how they perform.

Is it better having more ram? Does graphic solution makes a big difference?

For gaming 8GB of system RAM is fine, yes the graphics solution is a graphics card in a PC.

So will the laptop be running two programs smoothly with a 8 GB ram? Elgato program & google chrome, will the cup be good enough to handle both at same time?

Depends whether its on laptop or desktop and which specific cards they are. Generally for laptop mobile graphics, GeForce is further than AMD is at this point although make sure to check benchmarks to be sure.

Is there a website for the benchmarks or do I just search it up on google?
