Hey Dears,
I am Ahmed Salah, and I’m studying architecture engineering and actually facing so troubles in choosing my new pc .. so I needed a help of some experienced people, I mean you
Firstly to make everything clear,
I will use my pc mostly for the following: 3Ds Max – Rhinoceros – Revit – AudoCAD - Rendering – Photoshop).
So I want you while answering my next questions to put in your mind how the choice will affect the my work , time of rendering and the difference in quality between the scenes rendered by the different pcs
My Budget is between (1400 – 1600$)
ps: a little increase in the price is okay for me if it really will worth it.
Here is my questions:
1. What do you think about that one?

2. Comparing the above with the next laptops ?
Dell M6800: http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/precision-m6800-workstation/pd?oc=cap6800w7p201&model_id=precision-m6800-workstation&dgc=BA&cid=287047&lid=5494548&acd=123092118502786723&ven3=878802937232133762

Actually I need portability too for the college, so if the above laptops (or any better choice you would recommend for me) can give me the same results like the desktop build you saw above I will go for laptop
3. can I use my current laptop for light modelling? Using 3dmax, revit, rhino without rendering (just for drawing and editing my work while being in college or travelling)?
my current laptop >>> are you ready (you will find it funny :’D )
Cpu: Intel i3 2.13GHz – Ram: 8GB
