I was unsure about: Lenovo legion #1 Ryzen 5 5600h / 3060 6gb / 8gb ram Lenovo legion #2 Ryzen 7 4800h/ 2060 6GB/ 16GB ram(better screen) Usage: 3D modeling, photogrammetry, and video editing. Ended up choosing the 4800h because the core count of the software I'm going to use is more CPU intensive.

When it comes to laptops it's all about power efficiency so use should stick to ryzen 5 5600H on. And RTX 3050 is good for games as it gives DLSS.

The number shows that Ryzen 5 5600h is overall better and I personally been checking out Dell G15 a lot recently. Not to sound biased, but G15 offers the best specs for a budget gaming laptop. But then again, it’s up to you which one is the better buy according to the deal you get.

As a 3D Artist, which laptop should I choose under the 80k budget? Should I purchase Asus Zephyrus G14 ryzen 7 octa-core 4800HS WQHD anti-glare display, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650/120Hz? Or is there any better option available? Along with performance, I need color accuracy.

Choose Dell G15 cause it has advanced Optimus which is kind of a mux switch and it has better thermals overall 5600h 3050 provides a better-balanced performance and choose Lenovo if you need to do video editing like stuff.

Ryzen 7 is the best compared to ryzen 5 but you should go for Dell G15 if you consider gaming more prior as RTX 3050 is much more powerful, it's the replacement of 1650 for laptops, it supports less, and is more optimized. If performance is your consideration, if you want to run more heavy software Ryzen 7 is the better one.

Many people get confused about these CPU. But in my opinion just buy ryzen 5 5600h if you don't attach it with external monitor. 6 core is more than enough for 1080p You don't get any difference between 8 and 6 core CPU in 1080p. And ryzen 5 5600h has more cache and multiplier than ryzen 7. Just go for ryzen 5 5600h If you want to get a 2k or 4k external monitor than ryzen 7 4800h

guest, Bcz in external higher resolution, more core gets in work. Most games support 6 core in 1080p. In 2k and 4k, 8 core is best as you get more performance value. See some 6 vs 8 core reviews on Google you can understand.

Forget the cpu confusion. Two things I can confirm is 1. HP Victus gaming performance is way above ASUS tuf. For confirmation you can watch the benchmarks of both on the Venoms tech channel and compare them side to side. 2. The temperatures on Victus is way worse than on tuf. Victus reaches 100 while tuf reaches 80 - 89. I think the TUF has been configured not to go higher than that, which has reduced its performance I would personally recommend buying VICTUS and then undervolting the cpu to get lower temperatures because from the benchmarks, there is a huge difference in the performance. Hope this helped
