The actual "requirement" of these types of software is highly dependent on the models you regularly work with. That's a highly variable answer from user to user.

Just use Revit on your current laptop, I'd say it's plenty good. If it works it works. If it doesn't, come on back and we can figure out what to do (about the only performance improving upgrade you can do is to add RAM). Aside from the time required to install the software (minimal), it's a free test (pretty sure they offer a 30 day free trial). Regardless, the license is owned by YOU. Although you can only run a single-user license on one machine [at a time], changing laptops (if your current laptop isn't up to snuff) isn't going to invalidate your license.
