Any guides to buying a good laptop for optimal photo editing?
I'm in dire need of getting a new laptop within a $1200 limit. I have been a cheap bastard and been using the same 2011 Macbook with GT 640M and 4 GB RAM that I've been using for my photo editing and now its on its last leg and I need an upgrade. What is the best I can get with
>SSD (512 minimum preferably)
>Good enough GPU for high in Photo Editing, its my major side hustle.
>16GB RAM, I want to actually be able to multitask while running PS/Lightroom
>Good IPS screen at least 72% NTSC
>Good viewing angles so I'm not stuck looking head on
>15' inches because i'm blind as fuck even with my glasses
All research I've done just keeps shilling me XPS 15 which is 1800 minimum for good specs. Surely there has gotta be a better option. I prefer not having all the new shit like 2-in-1, touchscreen, or anything like that. Just a good laptop with a solid touchpad with a bottom click for photo editing.
Would it be best to wait for Black Friday/cyber monday shit?
