gtx card?

I'm not quite sure what you're asking.
If you mean whether I want the card to be a GTX, I'd prefer so, but I'm not sure how relevant it is to Photoshop/PremierePro.

If you're asking what graphics card I want specifically, I have no idea what's good now, been running on pretty old stuff for my desktop.

I don't know the difference. -does quick google search-
It seems I should say Quadro because it's more relevant to my work?
But I've always used GTX and have had no issue.

I'll take suggestions for both, if that's okay.

Looking for suggestions for a laptop/notebook (don't know the difference) for editing/painting purposes.

Specific programs: Photoshop CC (and possibly future versions?), Premiere Pro (light editing)

Budget: myr2000-myr5000

If possible, would take something that will last awhile in terms of parts.

Budget so flexible? There are tons of options for such budget

Any preference on weight and battery life?

Top up a bit can get Thinkpad A485:
Ryzen 5 Pro 2500U, 8GB dual channel, 256GB SSD, IPS, 24+72Wh battery (can choose lower capacity for lower weight), 3yr warranty

1. Acer Swift 3 SF314-54 with RAM upgrade
2. Lenovo Yoga 520/530 with RAM upgrade
3. Lenovo Ideapad 320s 14 with RAM+SSD upgrades

If you don't mind lower battery life:
1. Dell Vostro 5471 with manual RAM+SSD upgrades
2. HP Pavilion x360 14 cd0036tx with RAM upgrade
3. HP Pavilion 14 ce0082/83tx with RAM+SSD upgrades
4. Dell Inspiron 7472 DFO with good sRGB IPS

Do you mind 13 inch laptops? Also, do you mind low sRGB IPS panel?
