laptop choice for solidworks

[Taipan95]

Good morning.
I address to all those who usually use sw. I should buy a laptop that allows me both to model in 3d, and to make fluid dynamic or structural simulations (intermediate level).
I have a budget of 1800-2000€, and I had adorned for example msi creator 17m-a10sd-219it since I think I have double fan, a good graphics card with ddr5 and a good processor (i7).
Does anyone have any advice or opinion to give me on the choice?
Thank you.

because... because... how many posts are the same... with the same question... portatile for solidworks... . .

try to search.... There is the embarrassment of choice.

but you can't instead write a new post, first read, then use a post to continue?

better few cores and many mhz... if fem and floworks better some extra cores. better certified board cards or video cards from gaming spins.
at that price there are also very powerful revised workstations.

Hi.
it is true there are many posts on the forum, but the problem is that technology runs and every month they supply models... personally an old post of a year already I do not consider it anymore, because it seems obvious to me that with that budget I want a cutting edge pc.
Moreover, and this topic seems very important to me, in no post it is the subject double fan: PCs that are often mentioned have only one; already the laptops warm a lot, I believe that a fundamental requirement is to have a fan close to the cpu and a close to the gpu otherwise doing simulations it fry all over time (to speak for personal experience just with laptops on sw).

If we want to draw up a constructive discussion on this last aspect, I would appeal to your answer and propose to use this discussion as a continuation for others.

a laptop cannot replace the intensive activities of a fixed workstation. that is why for years there are additional devices, made to shelf with under 2/3 or more fans to connect usb.this is the real system to bring away heat from a laptop....and we are talking about 30/40€.

Do you usually use them? I had one (I admit, a half knuckle) and it practically did not improve the situation. for this I have won on msi that proposes some models with double fan, discarding hp or of which are often recommended in discussions. Besides at work we use precision 7550, honestly I'm not very well.

I used them several years and sincerely I stopped cooking quad cores. the important thing is that there is an air flow that laps the portable cel carcass and flows the air flow. certainly if the environment turns out to high temperatures there is no saint that keeps, not even with additional heaters or other.
I do not deny that the most effective system was the self-built one where a side fan blown, channeled and two small fans aspired from below creating the river effect that envelops.
certainly that a laptop with double fan is thought to download from the gpu plate and cpu directly the heat....but will it be enough? or was it equipped with 10€ fan because something else has been spared in space? this to say that it is not said that the double fan is more effective than a single fan. it is necessary to evaluate the internal fluid dynamics.
but of course users must trust the products.
I have always seen them go and cook rarely... But they don't push enough.
the hp are much more powerful and fluid in the execution of the work, but the fans are noisy and turn quite strong, a bit even for the first drivers that they had done for the management of the heat.... now they are better.
msi face has always done gaming stuff and therefore could have more experience in the experimental field at high temperatures however it should be tried.
They've been turning a lot of amd processors and sincerely have nothing to envy to intel... and maybe they're even more stable.

Thanks for the tips, what do you think of a pc like that?

Notebook workstation portatile Dell Precision 7550 da 15", ottimizzato per l'intelligenza artificiale e la VR

La workstation portatile da 15\" più potente al mondo, con intelligenza artificiale. Dotata dei più recenti processori Intel Core e Xeon, di scheda grafica NVIDIA e Dell Optimizer per Precision.

it comes anyway to 5.1 ghz that doesn't seem to me little, I have to use it with sw and matlab but still I don't have to work with axes from 1000 pieces... of hp I have seen the zbook g7 that is very similar to the of, but it costs 15% more and it is out budget.

my use would open axioms <500pz as well as perform simulations on the same... how budget can be too much or is it correct? I can not go beyond 2000€, but of course if you tell me that for my use it is enough less I am happy to save

 

[meccanicamg]

the number of pieces alone is not an indication of necessity.... because if I open a reducer with inside 21 detailed gears of helix, bevels and fittings risk to die inside ... while I open a set of 200 cubes I notice ....
surely 5ghz are not few....and come a nice advantage.
definitely is a workstation that works well.
