Laptop for digital art

[jaslion]

I've posted a few times before about this so sorry for the repeat but all the options I was going to get that would combine a strong laptop + a good screen are out of my league in terms of price sadly so I'm just going to accept it that I'll get a weaker laptop and get a cpu + motherboard to cobble togheter a decent desktop from parts I have laying around.

 

I do digital art (photoshop is my main tool), 3d moddeling (blender is becoming my main software but sometimes still use maya), zbrush (so some graphics card that isn't just intel is needed) and that's about it for intensive programs.

 

As long as it can run these things semi smoothly and has a good screen I'm happy.

Current laptop spec that died:

6700hq

32gb ram

970m

1.5tb of ssd storage (512 nvme drive + 1tb sata ssd)

15.6 inch 1080p panel

 

Budget is 1400€ max (same price as the old one funny enough)

 

Anything goes really just nothing super heavy (3kg+).

 

Thank you for your time and again sorry for asking so much about it. I didn't want to replace this laptop I had but need to now and I'm just stuck finding one that fits well like this one did.
