New PC laptop spec requirements

[Anne Adlington]

I FINALLY bought something  please tell me there are no red flags here.... They're adding a 500GB SSD. I decided to go with a laptop for the portability. I have my 24" ProArt monitor to edit with as well and one day I will purchase a desktop but of now, hopefully this will be sufficient. 

 

ASUS ROG GL552VW-DH71 Gaming Notebook 
- 15.6" IPS FHD (1920x1080) Intel Core i7-6700HQ(2.60GHz) 16GB DDR4, 1TB HDD 
- NVIDIA GTX960M 2GB GDDR5 DL DVD-RW BT4.0 Win10

Oh, I forgot to mention: AVOID AMD CPU CHIPS ON LAPTOPS. They aren't as efficient and usually run hot. Intel's laptop CPUs run circles around AMD these days. Now if this was a desktop, that's a different story.

You picked a good one. Enjoy your purchase.
