Hello fellow techies,
I am looking to buy a laptop for school. I do a lot of 3D modeling, particularly Creo from PTC. I am always moving and will need it everyday--therefore it needs to be small and light.
After 3 days of intense searching, I've come across one question that I cannot answer: Integrated or Discrete/Dedicated?
I understand that bigger is better, but in my form factor it is really hard to get discrete/dedicated graphics. But do I even need it?
A quad-core i7 is a given in this situation. I've come across two options; Dell XPS 13 (integrated graphics Intel HD 520), and MSI's phantom (discrete/dedicated Nvidida 1060).
What do you think? Nobody is comparing Intel HD graphics for 3D modeling, so this is going to be a tough one to solve. Thanks you guys, I really appreciate it. Have a wonderful day!
