Hi there, am looking for a new and powerful laptop that can handle music production quite well, but am not sure what to get. So far I’ve understood that its important for this laptop to have:

  • 32GB RAM (DDR5 preferably)
  • Top-notch processor
  • Good graphic card
  • at least 1TB of SSD Storage, planning on buying external ssd later.

Anyone have any good recommendations for this? The budget is around 2,250 USD / 2,137 EUR.

    Great tips - appreciate it a lot! The display tip especially as it wont be connected to any extra displays most of the time. The PC also won’t be for any photo/video editing. Strictly making music but also the occasional games here and there - nothing too heavy, but enough to require a discrete card.

      sRGB is fine for gaming and your DAW, DCI-P3 is only useful if you want very accurate colours. The DCI-P3 one has higher frame rate, but it’ll have more latency. You could go for the HDR variant, but HDR is mostly bad on laptop screens. Apart from that it uses a lot of battery power.
