Hi. I am an architecture student (I just started last year) and I'm looking for a laptop that can handle autocad, 3ds max, photoshop and other programs such as revit maybe. I'm going to use it for gaming too and that's exactly where my headaches begin. I've found THIS laptop to be the best value for games (design complaint aside), but I'm still not really sure how will it perform in the programs I've mentioned above. What do you think? will the the ATI mobility radeon hd 5870 gpu be good for that?
I've read CAD users and gamers are a completely different market when it comes to GPUs and that seems to be the general consensus, but then THIS thread made me doubt.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Things to consider:
-Yes, it has to be a laptop. I spend most of my time at the university.
-You can recommend me a laptop too, if you want.
- Ugh I hate when people say this, but... sorry for the bad english. I'm not a native english speaker.
