Posted November 17, 2016 I was wondering what people thought my best option for a photo editing laptop for travelling would be? I only use Lightroom CC usually and have a PC if I need to do any PS work. Ideally it would be under £700 but I could push slightly higher. Any advice is much appreciated.

Posted November 17, 2016 Author Just now, doomsriker said: yea, I would avoid m3 equipped laptops. Okay. I thought it would be a bit under powered but wasn't sure becuase some people said it was fine. Best to stick to i5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ULV CPU is just plain shit for everything else than web browsing and word. Did you forget that there is also HQ and such. @T3CHKN0 Look for a used laptop with a HQ or MQ chip Before you buy amp and dac.
