hello everyone, creating this thread to ask about what laptop i should get for HD video editing specifically using DaVinci. i dont want an Apple, so I’ve been eying the Acer Nitro V Gaming Laptop with Intel Core i9-13900H Processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU. is this a good choice? also, im hesitant about NVIDIA’s whole boasting about their card using AI driven graphics, would this somehow affect my future work in a negative way like image smoothing on HD TVs or is this something that’s avoidable? the laptop also has 16 gigs of RAM, would i need to get larger RAM too like the G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series (XMP) DDR4 RAM 64GB (4x16GB)? i’m a dummy when it comes to this stuff, so any help would be appreciated.
you sure you can’t dodge intel via latest amd? or is davinci shit on integrated amd graphics?
(but nvidia won’t do shenanigans inside program, it’s for games. also consider display resolution for video, it where shit display will matter a lot)
Ryzen AI 9 HX 395 is comparable to a laptop 4060 in gaming, would need to double check its av1 performance, which is the more relevant factor for this use case.
im going to be honest with you, i only recognize the words ‘intel’ and ‘davinci’ from your sentence, thats how much of a dummy i am. if it helps, the only reason intel is there is because it comes with the computer also the people i work with prefer DaVinci (if i had my way, id just use kden-live). my apologies.
thanks for the info and noted!
