I need a laptop with high end cpu.

[TizToz]

Hello,

I need a laptop with high end cpu. All my work is at Microsoft excel, and I don't do gaming at all so the integrated graphic card is enough. All I care for is the cpu.

 

I have a desktop with 8700k cpu, and it completes every task with an average of 1 minute. However, my laptop takes 7 minutes, which makes me crazy. 

 

What are your suggestions?

1- Let's try to keep the budget under 2000$ if possible. 

2- Apple is not an option. 

3- I use it daily for heavy work, so no throttling. 

 

Thanks

Well, Sager offers laptops with desktop CPUs in them, so if you really wanna go balls-to-the-walls on CPU-grunt, Sager's your choice: https://www.sagernotebook.com/Intel-Core-i7-9700K/ -- though, you'll need to up your budget to $2500.

something along the lines of a Dell XPS may be a good choice

6 core i7 and fast SSD storage

Might want a Clevo with desktop CPU

 

Where are you from? Any preference on weight and battery life?

Thanks for the reply.
I have no problem raising the budget to 2500$ if that give me significant improvement.
1- site doesn't open for me.
2- as far as you know, is this the 9900k desktop edition?
3- will more cores help in excel?

Thanks for the reply. 

Do you have a full name of dell xps? 

I need only the one or two with the best cpu for excel, no graphic needed.

Battery and weight are not an issue for me as long as I get a huge cpu performance.

Sager's website has always been a tad slow, it should still open. And yes, like I said, those are the real, proper desktop-CPUs -- you could literally open the laptop, take the CPU out and pop it into a desktop-mobo, if you felt like it, or vice versa.
