Laptop for Rendering 3D CAD

[lborneman]

Hello,

I am wondering what specs are good to operate Solidworks 2015, Keyshot and Adobe Suite on a laptop. This will be my primary computer since I travel. I'm currently using the below specs and I'm having trouble at points with Keyshot and Photoshop mainly (shutting down or freezing up). Any recommendations would be great! Thank you in advance.

Currently I have the laptop:
1. Dell Precision M4600
2. 500 GB Storage Partitioned
3. NVIDIA Quadro 334.95
4. Windows 7 64 bit
5. Core i7 VPRO - 2.40 GHz
6. RAM 8 GB

hello there the quadro gpu you have is good for modeling photos and autocad etc etc not really good for games 16gb of RAM would help in your case but i would still recommend a laptop with a quadro GPU i dont know what your budget is but there are plenty of newer model laptops with new quadro GPU in them

A quadrino chip should be enough for all the software to run but I am not sure about solidworks. 16gigs of ram should be enough and and i5 is minimum for the cpu. i7 is preferred by professionals.
