Hello,

I study mechanical engineer and I need a laptop for SolidWorks. The only problem is that I am on a budget of 1100 and I need a laptop for the next 4 to 5 years.

I also question the need of a really good graphics card vs a better cpu. This is because on school i heard that most of the things they do in the second year of my study is simulating, and that this is mostly processor heavy. Is this true or partially true?

Do some people have some recommendations for a good laptop?

I also have a few wishes if possible: - minimal a SSD of 250GB or a SSD and HDD

                                                         - good build quality

                                                         - battery time of minimal 4 hours

                                                         - 15.6" screen

                                                         - preferrable anti-glare screen

Thank you in advance!
