2GB
4GB
8GB
16GB
- Serious Gaming, Video Editing, Heavy work like video rendering, animation and 3D
graphics.
32GB
- [Heavy] PC replacement laptop (ex: 60fps 4K video rendering, 60fps high resolution
animation, and professional level 3D graphics)
64GB
- Can be used for anything, less recommended because it is not efficient, it is better for PC
DDR3 or DDR4
If you want to use your laptop for gaming, video editing, heavy multitasking, and heavy work, I
suggest to use DDR4, if you use your laptop only for browsing, social media, light gaming, light
work (e.g. typing documents) then DDR3 is enough.
STORAGE
- is a type of memory storage that is famous for its speed, SSD is usually popular for
storage of OS, Games, And other applications, SSD makes booting and loading much
faster than a regular Hard Disk, unfortunately, this SSD is much more expensive than
HDD. the size of SSD on a laptop is 256GB.
HDDs
- are usually used to store large quantities of files, and this HDD is much slower than SSDs
however, is much cheaper, and large memory. Usually people who like to store a lot of
files use this HDD.
NVME
- is a Super-Fast SSD, typically popular used for transferring large amounts of data
(example: video editor).
SSHD
- is an HDD that has "SSD" Inside it, however, "SSD" In this SSHD will store data based
on how many times/ how much it is used. (example: SSHD will store file A because I
often use file A).
I don't recommend SSHD because it Costs a little more than it should be (in my opinion) and
would rather recommend SSD or HDD, and these SSHDs are pretty hard to find on a laptop.
*Note: If only need fast loading windows, SATA SSD is better, if need for heavy data transfer
(ex: video edit, animation, and large file transfer) NVME SSD is recommended.
USB PORTS
My recommendation is:
3x USB A
at least 2 USB A 3.0
*Note:
USB C
SD & MicroSD, most useful for camera work (photographer & videographer), less recommended
for storage expansion.
The resolutions:
720p/HD
1080p / FHD
1440p/QHD
2160p/4K
Response time/latency
Refresh Rate
Standard = 60Hz
TN = fast screen.
*Note 2020: now a lot of TN screens have a good viewing angle & good color, but still advised
to choose IPS for color grading. While for IPS screens, there are many IPS screens that are
good for gaming, so if possible, it is recommended to choose IPS only.
GPU
Nvidia GTX:
Nvidia RTX
2060 = Similar to 1660Ti, for Ray tracing can make about 60fps, but less stable in ray-tracing.
2070 = Suitable for ray-tracing in 1080p, smooth, same/better performance than 1080.
CPU
Intel:
H Series
U Series :
i3 = if can be avoided
i5 = regular usage, similar to i5-H
i7 = can do photoshop & light rendering
*Note: AMD CPU is usually stronger for multi core (gaming) things if intel is better for content
creator, illustrator because intel is superior in single core
