First off, hi there, as I'm new to this community.
Someone referred to this place as the best spot to find some good advice concerning hardware, so here I go.
As I'm going to study IT + Graphic Design I'm ready to do a little investment, but I want to make sure what I'm going to buy will be worth it too. I'll simply start by listing a few things I've had in my mind / what it should be able to do etc. Also, my budget is about 2000£ - 2500£ at the moment.
- Laptop
- I've heard SSD drivers would be best for writing / reading speed
- It'll need to be able to support 4 OS's, preferrably an OS in an OS in an...
- I'm thinking of a i7 Quad Processor
- 1-2x 4GB RAM, depending on the price deviation
- Good Graph card preferrably able to support 3D rendering, though not lacking in normal performance
- The standard ports and memory card reader
Optional:
- 1 TB Harddrive
- Extra monitor
I know this is a load of (unprecise) information, but it'd still be helpful if anyone could send me in the right direction here and there. I've already checked some custom shops but I'm trying to compare a bit and trying to find the best stuff for my cash.
Maybe worth noting: I'm from Belgium so the custom shop you might have had in mind should be able to deliver internationally. Again, thanks for giving this a read!
I hope I'll get some responses

P.S. I really hope I posted this in the correct category, had a tough time finding it .
