Hi

I use a desktop for designing websites and doing graphics work using Photoshop but I need a laptop as a backup or so I can work when I am away from home

I created a quote, number 668233

Would this be suitable?

Looks like a good build. Just upgrade to the silver warranty, change the wifi card to the Killer card (the standard ones sometimes have driver issues) and maybe upgrade to 16gb of ram if you can afford it (I believe photoshop uses a large amount of ram, but correct me if I'm wrong :) )
