  Hey guys, I’m searching for a new Laptop for a friend who’s a motion graphics artist (Mainly After Effects with a bit of Premiere Pro & Photoshop) around Budget (900$-1100$).
  Yes, i know that going for a laptop isn’t the best idea and i advised against it, but it’s not my call.

  I crossed Apple off of course.

  I narrowed down the list to these laptops:

  1- DELL INSPIRON 5567
  – Intel i7-7500U, 2 Cores, 2.70-3.50 GHz, 4MB Smartcache
  – 16 GB RAM DDR4
  – 4 GB Radeon R7 M445 Graphics Card
  – 1 TB HDD
  – 15.6 Inch Screen (Full HD)
  – Windows 10

  2- Lenovo Legion Y520 Gaming Laptop (My Pick so far)
  – Intel i7-7700 HQ, 4 cores, 2.80-3.80 GHz, 6 MB cache (Not smart)
  – 16 GB RAM DDR4
  – 4 GB Nvidia 1050 Graphics Card
  – 1 TB HDD + 128 GB SSD
  – 15.6 Inch Screen (Full HD)
  – Windows 10

  3- Lenovo Ideapad 520
  – Intel i7-7500U, 2 Cores, 2.70-3.50 GHz, 4MB Smartcache
  – 16 GB RAM DDR4
  – 4 GB Nvidia GeForce 940MX DDR5L Graphics Card
  – 2 TB HDD
  – 15.6 Inch Screen (Full HD)
  – Free DOS

  4- Dell Inspiron 5570
  – Intel i7-8550U, 4 cores, 1.80-4.00 GHz, 8MB Smartcache
  – 16 GB RAM DDR4
  – 4 GB VGA-AMD Radeon 530 Graphics Card
  – 2 TB HDD + 256 tB SSD
  – 15.6 Inch Screen (Full HD)
  – Windows 10

  They all sound a bit weak to me, but I’m restricted to this budget.
  If you have alternatives as well please tell me.

  Thanks!
