Hi guys, I’m an architecture student, and next year will be my second year, so I might have to get a pc that can actually carry softwares such as AutoCAD, Creative Cloud, SketchUp, etc. I’m not really too sure about the softwares that are needed for the course but those softwares I mentioned are what people in my school use. I’m also quite a tech illiterate so bear with me ;-;

[B][Budget]
RM2000-3000

[Purpose]
School, video editing and gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use]
Just a mouse

[Monitor resolution]
1920x1080

[Games & softwares that use frequently]
CSGO, MapleStory (with VPN), and architecture related softwares, a lot of them I think

[Personal preferences]
I just want a computer that doesn’t freeze when opening heavy softwares/games. If the computer can run Mac (school) and Windows (gaming) OS, that would be great.

Also, what OS is best for architecture students? My friend told me to get a macbook for architecture, so is mac best for architecture students? I have a mba but I feel like it sometimes freezes a little bit, but not as much as my old lenovo g500s used to.

Thanks for your help! Really appreciate it
I'll just stick with windows, if that's the case then.
But if I had a bigger budget, I should get larger ssd and ram, right? Should I also get an i7 processor too?
This rig will also be able to handle a little gaming, right? Do I need sound/graphic cards?
