• In 2022, no photographer or designer can do without a laptop, it is an essential tool to get their work done. NOTIK specializes in laptops, and we are happy to advise which laptop to choose for a designer and photographer in 2022.

     

    Choosing the best laptop for artists is not easy, especially if you have just started taking your first steps in this direction.

     

    Powerful hardware is required to run AutoCAD or 3ds Max. First of all - a processor with four or more physical cores, stably operating at a frequency of at least 2.5 GHz, from 8 GB of RAM and a video card that operates at least 2 GB of RAM.

     

    In fact, AutoCAD and 3ds Max can be run on any laptop that meets these specifications. However, running a program and working in it are slightly different things.

     

    If you are just starting to master graphic design and 3D modeling, then it is better not to rush to take out a loan and buy a top-end solution.
    Consider options from the middle price segment, specifically entry-level gaming laptops.

     

    For advanced users working on serious and "heavy" projects, we recommend investing at least twice as much money in your working tool. Required parameters: modern 6-core processor or better, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card, at least 16 GB of upgradable RAM and a high-quality screen.

     

    Noteworthy models are Lenovo Legion, HP Omen 16 and HP Victus 16. To choose the best option in terms of price and performance, we recommend that you check out our rating of gaming laptops. This is true for people involved in interior design, and for those who draw characters for games.

     

    For serious professionals, there are mobile workstations. A mobile workstation is a highly specialized tool in the form factor of a laptop that is designed to perform resource-intensive tasks related to design and simulation. Such devices are equipped with special NVIDIA RTX professional-level graphics cards (formerly NVIDIA Quadro RTX). They cost decently and, as a rule, are bought by companies, not individual users.

     

    If you work with vector graphics in CorelDraw and Adobe Illustrator, the choice is simply huge. The main criteria: a processor no worse than the current Intel Core i3 and AMD Ryzen 3, preferably 8 GB of RAM, an SSD drive that will significantly speed up the launch of programs.
