I'm going to be doing a traveling architecture studio this summer so I unfortunately have to trade in to get a laptop to do the job. I would like to have a mac to normal word processing + email, and run bootcamp to do Rhino, Maxwell, 3dsMax, Autocad. . .
I worried about the GeForce GT graphics card. I have a quatro FX 580 in my workstation and runs really nice for me. I would like a lighter machine but I'd but more marks on 3d modeling performance.
Right now I'm in between this two:
Macbook Pro 15"
i7 2.6
8 GB ram
GeForce GT 330
500GB HD @ 7200rpm
high res screen
$2500 (before tax)
or
Lenovo ThinkPad W510
i7-820QM
NVIDIA Quadro FX 880M
8 GB PC3-10600 DDR3 SDRAM 1333MHz SODIMM Memory
500GB HD @ 7200rpm
$2300 (before tax)
What do you think?
Thanks.
