Help me pick a laptop :D

Moltar

Hi everyone!

I want to build a laptop for 3D work inside college and at home. I have a desktop but I dont want to be stuck in my bedroom all day working on my folio, I want to sit with family, visit friends etc, while having the ability to do my work at the same time.

I've looked at a few builds on pcspecialist.co.uk and built a few too. Honestly don't know what would be best for me and I need some help.

Can anyone help me out?

My budget is around £800

For a GPU, try to get at least a GTX 860M or 960M if you want to work with game engines like UE4. Get at least 8 gigs of ram with room to upgrade to 16. I found a laptop that will let me add a M.2 SSD along with a it's 1 TB HDD, so having that option is nice if I get tired of the slower HDD. Having an IPS screen can make a pretty big different, especially with laptops. I tend to have it off to the side, on top of me, or at angles pretty often, and color shifting on TN panels can be pretty awful.
