I understand it isn't exactly intended to be portable, I just need to be able to take it to and fro between 2 places so that suits me fine. For long journeys/portability I have a lightweight, lower spec laptop for that. It's just being able to move it easily compared to a desktop.

I would have much preferred to get a desktop pc but that isn’t an option for various reasons, ideally I’d like this laptop to last for a reasonable time before I have to upgrade to a new one.

I choose the Nova because it has Ryzen CPUs. Regarding your modifications, I think that would be a good idea and should just about be in budget

I am configuring a laptop to be used for Gaming, Video Editing and a bit of 3d modelling/coding etc. The spec I have currently is as follows: Chassis & Display Nova Series: 15.6" Matte Full HD 144Hz 72% NTSC LED Widescreen (1920x1080) Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 7 3700X Eight Core CPU...

I’ve decided to go with the ryzen 7 3700x and the rtx 2070 as I would like a more future proofed laptop. I totally agree with your point and I’ve spoken with my parents and they are willing to meet the are over budget so 😃 Thanks everyone for your help, I truly appreciate it!

oh yes, thanks for the reminder

Ok, I'm going to get that other drive as recommended. Chassis & Display Nova Series: 15.6" Matte Full HD 144Hz 72% NTSC LED Widescreen (1920x1080) Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Six Core CPU (3.6GHz-4.2GHz/36MB CACHE/AM4) Memory (RAM) 32GB Corsair 2666MHz SODIMM DDR4 (2 x 16GB) Graphics Card...

Would the ryzen 5 3600 be adequate for 1080p video editing and i would rather have a 2070 for better gaming performance.

Wouldn't my 1tb external ssd (Samsung t5 usb c) be an adequate scatch drive?

I don't need too much storage as i already have a 1tb external ssd. I am also going to be using it for programming and video editing - i would like it to be as future proofed as possible.

sorry - i have added that information near the end

I am building a laptop and my budget cannot exceed £1375. Specs are: Chassis & Display Nova Series: 15.6" Matte Full HD 144Hz 72% NTSC LED Widescreen (1920x1080) Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Six Core CPU (3.6GHz-4.2GHz/36MB CACHE/AM4) Memory (RAM) 32GB Corsair 2666MHz SODIMM DDR4 (2 x 16GB)...

What is your budget?

I would get a desktop but I can’t because I need to be able to travel with this pc. I could maybe get a mini pc but that would probably be an inconvenience

Would I be able to swap in a rtx 2060 super or rtx 2070 in the future?

Ok, thanks for the advice and I will make those changes. I would like to know how many years this system will be of adequate performance as I hope to use it as my main system for at least 5-7 years.

I am configuring a gaming laptop and my budget has a maximum of £1,350. I am open to suggestions on changes. I intend on using this system for gaming and video/photo editing. Chassis & Display Optimus Series: 15.6" Matte Full HD 120Hz 45% NTSC LED Widescreen (1920x1080) Processor (CPU)...
