Hey all! Looking to buy a new laptop as I’m starting a course in construction, will be using AutoCAD and 3D markup programs, not 100% on which yet. Looking for the best bang for my buck with a 1300€ limit. Having a touch screen/ screen to draw on may be a huge benifit also if you could keep that in mind 🙂
1. What is your budget?
1000-1300€
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
13-16”
3. What screen resolution do you want?
2K+
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
Need to buy for Uni
5. How much battery life do you need?
The best bang for my buck
6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?
Probably not much, but think a GPU is needed for the programs I will be using for design.
7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.)
Photo editing, general word, presentations, mark ups, 3d modelling, autocad.
8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need?
The best bang for my buck
9. If you are considering specific sites to buy from, please post their links.
Anywhere that ships to Ireland (most places that ship to UK ship to Ireland too)

4+ years
11. What kind of Optical drive do you need? DVD ROM/Writer,Bluray ROM/Writer,Etc ?
