Hi! Im looking for input on a laptop

AbigailClark18 — Mon, 17 May 2021 19:17:42 GMT

Hi everyone! I am a student who is currently working on my senior undergrad project using ArcGIS Pro, and I need a laptop that can run Pro as well as illustrator and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on where to start looking. I dont need anything fancy, just something that can handle running analyses on my data.

Performance in ArcGIS on a computer is strongly dependent on the RAM, GPU, and the processor.

I would recommend a gaming laptop. Not the low end budget gaming laptops.

You will need a 64 bit system.

For each of these it is the recommended. And more is better

4 Cores

8 GB RAM

Dedicate GPU, not shared, not integrated. 4 GB of Video Memory.
