I work for a small theater company and need a new laptop for video/audio recording/editing on the go. Been using a chinkpad t420 and its just not getting it done. Was looking at an asus zenbook maybe. I don't wanna go macbook I've already got software I'm used to using and don't wanna switch. Any suggestions? Got about $1500 to work with.

I'm in a somewhat similar situation, except I'm looking for a laptop with an nvidia GPU to run cuda without having to ssh into a remote computer.

So far, the only thing that came close to something relevant are gaymer laptops. They're the only ones left on the market that feature a non undervoltage CPU (the kind of ones with a 2 cores i7) and a decent GPU.

Of course, there's also workstations like the thinkpads P series that feature NVIDIA quadro iirc but these things are damn overly expensive.

I'm OK with the shitty 5 years old thinkpad bought from ebay for shitposting but I'm not found of spending almost the double of the price on a thinkpad rather than a "no name" laptop for approximately the same components (the laptop I'm eyeballing features a Core i7-6700 (or a 6400 for cheaper) and nvidia GTX1070).

The main difference if I go with this one is that I'd have to accept the "l33t hardcore gaymer" aesthetic with ventilation that looks like a lamborghini.
But this is better than being fucked in the wallet for "I'm such a serious business man that does real business done with my business laptop".

I was also looking at the asus rog which aside from being out of stock most places looks like a gamers wet dream. The p series are also fucking tanks. Not exactly the most portable and are way pricier than most other comparable laptops with similar specs.

Dell Inspiron 15 7567

Depends on where you live but there might be other brands than asus for gamer stuff.
There's a company that assembles computer for corporations that also proposes laptops with GPU for cheapish. They only ship domestically though.

I would definitely suggest the UX501. It's a real giant slayer. I know this because i'm posting from one right now.

Clevo laptops are usually much more understated. I managed to get a completely unbranded one with a 970M.
