laptop for Autocad LT 29014

[Anonymous]

i would like to do simple 2D drawings on AutoCad LT 2014,  mainly room/house plans, kitchen layouts and the occasional simple engineering part. My question is, what laptop requirements do i need.

I'm happy to buy a good-spec'd laptop (maybe Lenovo T430 i5 2.6 Ghz 8GB RAM 240 GB but most laptops dont come with a separate graphics card....do i really need one? My drawings won't contain rendering (unless arrow heads are counted as rendering) and there'll be only a little hatching, and it will be for home use, so high speed is not essential. Thanks, Adrian

http://hardware.autodesk.com is a good place to start to check 'suggested' system requirements.

IMHO, for most AutoCAD/LT users, a processor clocked at 3GHz or higher, 8Gig RAM minimum, and SSD harddrives (be careful not to undersize this one) are good enough for stock production work.
