Before this is premiers I just want to say MacBooks are not necessary. Some of the best programmes work better with windows laptops/ computers.

My laptop messed me up the moment i installed Twinmotion any version from 2020-2023. It crashes whenever model is heavy with layers and does not support Path Tracer also.

You did a very good job in doing this video.

My computer doesn't work well, I am just starting studying at art school and we are only use autocad and adobe photoshop by now but I know I will need something better when we start rendering, the thing is that this laptop is so handy because it is also a tablet!! so It helps a lot to do my sketches and retouch photos without a graphic tablet. Thanks for the info!!

Soo i have a question....do you think using a macbook pro with the latest m3 max chip and the 32gigs of ram is a good option for architecture school?

Hi, Thanks for your video!
How long does it take to render a scene with the RTX 3050 on your Dell? 
I know it depends on the quality you choose and the complexity of the scene itself, but let's say it's a regular kitchen or bathroom elevation. I'm choosing a computer now and can't decide on a graphics card.

Useful information thank you ❤ I've looking for a laptop/tablet for creative work. general art, Maybe video editing, Interior, and possibly product Design... Graphs, mindmaps, writting, projects... And learning / School. Has internal storage to hold all my stuff, can run multiple programs. I'm looking for a double screen preferably to spare myself having to get a separate monitor... I have seen a lot of people recommend ipads but ios is too limited for me Personally... Still on the search for the perfect one but this video has helped a lot though ! Great content girl!

Hi! Thank you for the great video. What do you think about Lenovo Thinkpad mobile workstations for architecture?

[michelllesawari]

Can’t you use revit whilst using parallels on MacBook

I currently have an evny x360 about 5/6 years old. I cannot upgrade the parts according to HP website. Would buying the newest edition be sufficient enough?

[Snowflake_.]

I just got a laptop last year but I can’t use it as much because the RAM is less but I plan on updating my iPad. Do you think I can use an iPad for Interior Design as a student or should I consider buying a new laptop all together?

[mgmlive]

Thank you so much for your videos
Andrea! I have been looking at this model but I have a question..do you do renderings yourself and can this computer handle one of those programs? I am a little lost on deciding which program to use
to make my sketchup models look more realistic.

Hello Andrea, thank you for this video. Please kindly recommend laptop for using 3d max and archicad. Thought about MAc M3 pro, but a little confused that now all software work on it.
