If you're a graphic designer using Photoshop (or doing other similarly intensive tasks), you're going to pay for it, but CPUs in this tier will provide the ultimate level of performance.
GPU (Gaming)
GTX 1660 Ti
GPU scores around 1000 start to approach Xbox One/PS4 level graphics. As you get closer to 1500, gaming performance will be more in line with the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. This is plenty fast enough for 60+ FPS at 1080p for most modern games.
RAM (Multitasking)
16GB DDR4
12-16GB of RAM. This is what we recommend for power users.
SSD (Fast Storage)
1TB HDD + 256GB SSD
This is plenty of space for the operating system and a decent amount of games, movies, or other large files.
Screen Size
15.6"
14"-15.9"
Build Quality
Upscale
Upscale- this type of laptop is a little nicer than the consumer tier.
Resolution
1080p
1080p+
Refresh Rate
60 Hz
A 60 Hz panel is considered standard. If you're a big gamer, you might consider stepping up to a faster panel.
