Those laptops were not cheap back in 2017/18, either. It's better to have a stationary desktop that is more economical to keep current technologically than go for a laptop and be stuck with a machine that performs increasingly poorly as it ages without the ability to mitigate it apart from replacing the entire thing. This is why getting a laptop as an ONLY machine for creative work is a bad idea. The only time you can just bolt a major component on, is if the machine support Thunderbolt and you have an eGPU to put a better dGPU in. When I felt my i7-7700HQ getting slow, I replaced it with a Ryzen 9 system. UserBenchmark: Intel Core i7-6700HQ vs i7-7700Kĭon't know if upgrading your CPU is an option, but in terms of bang for the buck might be worth checking out. The i5 9600K achieves better performance than the i7 7700K, and the i5 10600K achieves better performance than an i7 8700K. Newer i5's are either 6 cores and 6 threads or 6 cores with 12 threads. Older i7's (like your i7-6700HQ) were 4 cores with 8 threads. In general you will get better performance with a newer i5 vs older i7. I had a 2012 Alienware i7, 24GB RAM, 2 4TB SDD Samsung EVO drives and finally had to concede that it was outperformed by my kids newer i5 powered laptop. CPU architecture has improved a lot over the last couple of years and an i7 in itself is no longer an indicator of sufficient performance.Į.G. not picking on you, just giving information.ĬPU is probably the bottleneck. I7-6700HQ, 32 gb of ram, 2 TB Samsung 970 EVO PLUS M.2, should be good enough?
