Question So many options! which do I choose for video editing and 3D modelling?

[tom-misguided]

Hi tom's guide team and all the experts here @COLGeek @rgd1101, @hang-the-9 I need some help in making the right choice and I am confused. I need an RTX 3070, Intel i7 or AMD Ryzen that has enough power for video editing and 3d modelling / rendering without lagging, found a lot of laptops but not sure which one to go for.

I must confess I am not very experienced with this. I have managed to narrow down my choices to a number of laptops but I really don't know which would be the way to go, too many reviews out there and I am not really sure what's genuine and what isn't! I compiled a list of laptops that I found out there, I would prefer something that has RTX3070 and intel i7 but I like I said I am not so experienced and I need something very powerful and competent enough for 3d modelling, video editing and possibly gaming (also something that's good for the price as price is also a factor) . Really hope the experts out here can help me out.

Have you narrowed down the list? As it is, it is quite long and members aren't going to research all of those.

Personally, I would remove all of the Acers. Also, what is your budget?
