Laptop for 3d work - Architect

[Guest]

My friend's dad is looking for a new laptop, so he has asked me for some help but my knowledge on this matter is limited.

He's looking for a very powerful laptop and there's practically no price limitation :S He's going to be using it for his work in China where he runs his own architecture-business-thingy.

So he's basically asking for the best laptop on the market. He won't be getting a stationary as he needs to be able to carry it with him on business trips. There are no preferences when it comes to brands.

Any advice? 😀 I'm guessing quadcore and gtx 280 or something would be best?

Well, he is probably going to want a professional series graphics card that will handle stuff like CAD better than a gaming card.

Dell's Precision Line is a pretty good product: http://www.dell.com/us/en/business/notebooks/workstation-precision-m6400/pd.aspx?refid=workstation-precision-m6400&s=bsd&cs=04

As is Lenovo's ThinkPad W700: http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/...-category-id=95F811B4EF37447BAA6A66969FB312CF
