Hi there, I’m trying to explore setups for a new laptop dedicated to visuals.

My i7 mac book will still get everything audio.

I'd like to get a Windows system also because I'd like to combine max and TD too.

My purpose is both playing live and working in studio. I’d prefer a laptop, actually, except if I find a small form factor more powerful machine (that I’d remote control without screen/keyboard eventually)

I know I’ll need RAM, i7 or even i9, I read about Nvidia Quadro.

But I’m asking myself if I should do i9 and maybe not the most powerful Nvidia Quadro VS i7 and the most powerful Nvidia Quadro, things like that…

I know this kind of thread is eternally never ending, but I’d appreciate some references, or experiences or just ideas.

Any ideas, references, would be very appreciated.

big particles systems (I know cuda based systems are very powerful)

Lenovos workstation laptops have similar specs to what you describe for just over 3K. and i think that gets u i9. 

Can I ask why quadro over a gaming graphics like rtx? I have only seen a couple posts discussing this in the forum, one seemed to mention that max couldnt support cuda and another seemed to express the benefits, of quadro but i cant find the benefits one.

Hi Dante Lentz and thanks for your message.

As far as I imagine, fastest CPU is required here and yes I read about quadro vs geforce debate, a bit.

nvidia would be required if I also combine TouchDesigner with Max, for instance.

I don't know about future cuda/nvidia ways with Jitter...
