Laptop

Hi there, I have been tasked with finding a laptop for a relative that can work software like AutoCad and Revit. Not sure why I was tasked with this as me and technology would not be a great fit but anyway, here we are. Does anyone know a few basis I should be be looking out for? Would having sufficient RAM be important to run such software. I really don't know much about this stuff to be honest.

what's your budget

you'll want a 6-core or 8-core "H"-branded cpu from Intel or AMD

the H cpus are more powerful as more watts are sent to them

the gpu card doesn't need to be too powerful - an Nvidia 1650 is enough

the cpu is far more important

16gb ram is desirable

the cheapest way to get this is to buy an 8gb ram gaming laptop and add another 8gb ram cheaply yourself (just clicks in)

this will do the job well
