Hi folks,
I'm basically needing a laptop for univeristy, which will run drawing and rendering programmes (CAD, Revit, 3DS Max etc) without any real issue...
Now I'm not looking to go overboard on spending, however do require an SSD, as from what I'm aware they're a lot more quick and sturdy!
My budget would be around £750, as I look to purchase an external hard drive worth around £50 for storing my actual files on.

I have came up with a model I hope would do the job, however it's maybe completely out of sorts...
