I use a Thinkpad X1 carbon gen9 i7 with integrated intel video chip as
my daily driver. Unfortunately I've been limited for extra-work
activities such as video editing (was thinking of DaVinci Resolve) due
to the lack of proper GPU, or flight simulator lagging (have to set to
lowest possible video setting to get ok smoothness).
I'm on a budget and was wondering what reasonable hardware you would
recommend for such a task? I do have external monitors so it can be
anything for that matter, as long as it doesn't cost too much.
A discrete GPU card with Intel GPU chip can be had for around $139 in the USA.
That isn't any help for laptop users, but you may be able to find an off-lease
desktop computer with new and powerful enough discrete GPU for a lot less than a
newer laptop that is little better than what you have now. Or, a 5-8 year old
desktop with iGPU sporting an empty PCIe slot into which you can put an
appropriate discrete GPU.
I'm ok with a non-laptop as I'll do video editing solely at home on my
desk. Let me look into that direction then.
Thank you very much.
Fred
