[QUOTE="Dodge DeBoulet, post: 81224, member: 14925"] What's your budget? "Not looking to spend a lot" is somewhat subjective. My T460p with an aftermarket 2TB SSD and 32GB RAM totaled around $2K (2.5 years ago, of course). A serious desktop that maximizes performance and rendering speed could easily cost twice that. You should be able to find a used or reconditioned 1-2 y/o gaming laptop (likely to have discrete graphics, 8GB or more RAM and an SSD) somewhere in the US$500-1K range. Video takes up a lot of disk space; if the laptop comes with a smaller SSD, you could copy inactive files to an external hard drive to keep high-speed SSD storage available for active projects.
