Question Which laptop is better?

[Kaykeo]

Hi,
I need to buy a new laptop, of which I use for BIM software such as Revit. I wondered out of these laptops which one would you buy? The idea pad seems to have great specs, but I am unsure why 32gb ram and ryzen 9 is going so cheap?
Any help or advice would be appreciated I translated prices from danish krone to usd, but tech costs more here in Scandinavia
(Links are danish but the specs are in English )

using the laptop for?

for Revit and other BIM software (building information modelling)

 

[rgd1101]

did see any special gpu requirement for revit. so a better cpu would be my guess
the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro 16ACH6 have the better cpu

The biggest difference between them is the RAM.

An extra 16gb RAM and 500gb for the SSD is worth the extra $150.

Everything else is pretty much the same.

MSI has the 3060 and it's better for gaming and such. Other specifics are pretty the same, so you need to answer a question, do you need a gaming rig or not?

My bad, missed this post.

So, as for the modelling software, it's better not to spend much into GPU, instead better buy the one with better CPU and more RAM. So, my vote is for IdeaPad 5 Pro

Yeah exactly, RAM is more important in most cases.
