Dell Inspirons are always a cheap option with a lot of power packed in. They do weigh some more than other laptops as they have some strong plastic to make it handle rough handling.

 

No laptop will get you 3-4 mins 1080p rendering. And by this you have nothing to compare it to so I'm assuming the coveted 1min/1min 1080p real time rendering. 
 

The Dell Inspiron 15.6" Full HD IPS Gaming Notebook Intel Core i5-7300HQ 2.50GHz is on eBay for 789$ with a 256GB NVME and a GTX 1060 6GB. Since I don't think I can post eBay links that's the actual title of the item.

I disagree with you. Build quality and battery life are the most important things IMO. Not every laptop models is good. Always read reviews first before buying a laptop

thats why i said "and so fourth". there are other things, but they were to many for me to mention at that time. Battery is also one of my concernes once im gonna swap out my laptop, and not to mention i wait to see if the model of laptop has a good reputation or not.
