Hi guys, i'm looking for a laptop which will be used mainly for work, mostly involving office applications and autocad. Need a laptop which is reliable and good warranty coverage. Currently considering the Thinkpad 440P variants, between the i5 and i7 models. The i5-4200h variant comes with 4600hd and the i7-4600m comes with gt730m. Is there any significant performance difference between these? It's about 1k difference in price.
Or anyone can recommend other laptops of similar performance and price range? Thanks. |

Not really a big difference, unless if you are doing 3D stuffs Or anyone can recommend other laptops of similar performance and price range? Thanks. If you are doing 3D stuffs, then it might be better to consider notebooks with more powerful GPUs instead |
