Can a standard laptop run Affinity Photo & Designer


Recommended Posts

Hi

 

I was hoping to find out if a standard laptop such as:

I want to get affinity but would be starting out fresh and in need of a new laptop as I am currently on a chrome book. I don't want to spend £350 £400 on a laptop that won't run the software.

Should be no problem. I have them both on my laptop and onn my desktop.

realistically speaking for photo manipulation this will be nightmare whilst for graphic/ web design it might be acceptable

in this performance comparison are no pentium processors yet but I would expect it perform worse than an i3 processor 

 

for photo manipulation you definitely want something like an i5 quad core or better. GPU does not really matter.

 

cheers
