Portable choice for photoshop beginner
-
Hello friends, today I need your wisdom.
My best friend and I are already quite hooked on photography and now my friend has found an interesting course to get started in photoshop. He has a decent desktop PC that I built for him but he needs a laptop for the course which requires the following specifications.RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT:
pc/macHDD 500Gb usb 2.0 or Fireware
Ram 8GbWin /mac
Software: Adobe Bridge + CR/ Lightroom / PS
There isn't much information about versions but well, the guy wouldn't want to spend more than 500€ and for beginners I don't think he requires much but since I don't have any idea about PS in fact it's now when I will start to see how it goes with him and get involved I've looked at this laptop to see what opinion you give me about these AMDs or what suggestions you have
Lenovo Z50-75 AMD FX-7500, 8 GB of RAM, 1 TB HDD, Radeon R7 graphics
Toshiba Satellite C55D-C-110 AMD A8-7410/8GB/1TB/15.6
I was looking at something with intel but the i5s go up a bit in price, how do you see it, what we would add is a decent ssd later but I already have this contemplated separately, -
Well I recommend a lot of CPU, a lot of RAM.... And a good screen

I'm not a fan of AMD, but there's probably a competent i5 out there
The a8 consumes less, but they seem quite similar in performance

Check out the Lenovo Ideapad 100-15IBD, the best thing about it is that it fits the budget, the worst, everything else.
If it's a semi-professional field, the ideal, in my opinion, is to avoid the "U", the 4 GB and the HDD without the possibility of an extra SSD/M.2 drive. Unfortunately, you have to add bills for that.

Well I didn't have time to wait for your responses since the colleague saw there was one left on amazon and got the fx7500 for 328€ so he's trying it out for the moment to see how it goes, thanks for responding.
