I have been using a 2-year-old Acer laptop for most of my computing needs but AutoCAD runs okay and Revit and SketchUp are just completely buggy and barely usable.
I am looking for a laptop that should be able to run those programs smoothly. Does not have to be lag-free but just enough to work with. I do not care if it is IPS or not but 1080p FHD would be good. Most features are optional (touchscreen, keyboard back-light, etc.)
Most laptops I have seen only have a i5 or i7 processor with Intel HD Graphics 520. I personally don't think that will get a comfortable experience but I have not seen any benchmarks so if you have personal experience please let me know.
My budget is around $1000 limit but I would prefer a much cheaper laptop around ~$700-800.
I have been searching around and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
