Laptop are expensive and not powerful as a real pc I would say build your own pc or let someone build for you , You can get a decent custom built PC for 500 euros.

I want a laptop bro, I love Desktop before but I want something portable the one that I can carry whenever I left home

I just like making music not my bread and butter or such but more like on a hobby?

also I don’t have enough knowledge on creating a desktop haha such a noob

BTW! I have looked at an ASUS Laptop do you think this is a worth it in it’s price?

But I wanna double check it first before lending my money to this one?

Your best bet would probably be to look at the used market for older gaming laptops if you want performance for only 500$

Agreed with the second hand statement, though if you’re a computer n00b then you may not be aware of a rip off. Also, you may be the adventurous type … in which case you may be interested in sites like pcpartpicker, where people go to build systems based on some requirements (like, $500 budget), then share and review their builds. You can certainly find more bang-per-dollar this way, but again … with little build background, you’re going to have to put your adventuring hat on :slight_smile:

Either way, Renoise itself will run on pretty much anything. If you’re not planning on going crazy with plugins, then I might assert the Asus laptop you linked would be plenty.

If you had a couple extra bucks, I find the performance of solid state totally worth the trade-off of capacity. Get an external drive or something for samples.
