just dont forget the $50 thinkpad and you're good to go

The dell has more vram and an SSD. Both pretty usefull for video editing. But if you want proper bang for your buck I'd agree with the Asus. Screen size helps a lot when doing art, performance can be compromised imo

Third. If you are serious about graphic design, you will eventually need a mac book (or that sweet 5K iMac).

I personally always go for either thinkpads, dell precision or dell latitudes, because I'm confident in the build quality, but spec-wise all of the laptops except for the last one you posted seem pretty much adequate.

If you're going to do any amount of serious 3D rendering on the GPU, the 4GiB GDDR5 on the Inspiron will be a big bonus

I would prefer an i7 over an i5, but it's not that big a deal

I run 16GiB of RAM on all my machines, but 8 is fine too

SSD is a must, IMO, fuck computers without it. I'd rather take half the capacity (and use an external harddrive/cloud-storage in a pinch) than have slow-spinning rust-platters. I run M.2 NVMe on my desktop, but any SSD is fine, IMO.

Intel integrated GPU is no bueno, you'll want nvidia.

Other than that, I would go for build quality over everything else. Also make sure it has the ports you need to connect to the external projectors you might want to connect to (or get adapters)
