Hi,
I am looking at buying my first laptop for work and home use as I have just graduated from architecture at uni. In New Zealand laptops are really pricey and I've done my head in researching pros and cons so I thought I’d put out the 3 models I’m interested in, any feedback would be much appreciated.
Really want it for revit/Photoshop/work laptop usage but also the odd game, at this stage I’m not doing any intense rendering but would like the option to.
dell studio xps
15.6in FHD 1080p screen, i7-840QM 1.86 - 3.2 turbo boost, win 7 pro, 8 GB ddr3 1333MHZ ram, bluray, ati mobility radeon HD 5730 1 GB, 500GB 7200rpm hd ($3,125.00 NZ$)
Asus G73jh - not so professional looking though
17 in HD, i7-720QM 1.60, 8 GB ddr3 RAM, Mobility Radeon HD 5870 1GB, win7 pro, dvd drive,1TB 7200rpm hd (3,259.00 NZ$)
sony F127
16.4inch FHD, i7-740QM Processor 1.73 - 2.93 GHz*1, win7 ultimate,8 GB DDR3 SDRAM*2 (MAX),640 GB*3 Serial ATA, 5400 rpm, blu ray, NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 330M GPU with CUDA™ Technology 1GB ($3,500.00 NZ$)
Would really appreciate any help in deciding which of these would be best to run revit or are there any better options? Cheers.
