It will depend greatly on what your intent is with Fusion. Intense assemblies and photo quality local renders? Or more "dubbing around" type stuff, maybe some light 3d modeling and printing, occasional CAM toolpaths?
We do have a System Specs sheet: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/fusion-360/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/System-requirements-for-Autodesk-Fusion-360.html

For importing 3d models, editing them and then printing them, I don't need to render them on fusion. Is That specs for a laptop enough sir?

Technically, yes. But truthfully, I'd want to search out something a bit more powerful if I had the cash to do so.

Are you set on a laptop? For the same amount of money, you can often get a PC that's quite a bit more powerful

Hi,

1. All you need >> CPU Speed

2. Number of cores >> unimportant

3. RAM > 8 GB

4. Graphic > Direct X low/midrange

Yes I can build a pc much stronger with my budget, but I require a laptop because I'm not home most of the time and I like to model everyone and then. I'm super confused because I don't know anything about laptops. Thank you man

Thank you, I think the specs I posted is enough based on you post.

More cores seem to help for rendering.

@Anonymous this device should be more than sufficient for Fusion 360. What is the behavior you are experiencing?

Hi,

As long as you don't know which action with which design causes the state of your desktop system, it makes no sense to comment on the suitability of a new (better) system.
