ABV5(31a) Top most powerful laptops

 Top most powerful laptops 

Hi everyone and welcome to this YouTube channel.

1. Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch, 2021

All hail the master of the PC universe. The Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch (2021) is probably the best laptop creative pros can buy right (should budget and software support allow), thanks to its mind-blowing performance, brilliant screen and huge battery life as we found out in our review. 


It is large and hefty (33% heavier than its little sibling), which is why the 14-inch MacBook Pro may be a better buy, unless you want the larger display real estate (with a higher screen resolution) and a bigger battery and a more powerful processor. We’d rather go for a bigger battery especially one that can last almost 19 hours looping a 1080p video. Apple also brought back some of the ports that were previously omitted, like a HDMI port and a full size card reader, both dearly missed by creatives. 


2. HP Pavilion Aero

You may be surprised to see the HP Pavilion Aero 13.3 in this list, after all, it belongs to HP’s mainstream consumer laptop line but we feel that it deserves this spot at number two for a couple of reasons. 


Not all powerful laptops have to be expensive and not all powerful laptops have to be heavy. At the time of writing, this sub-1Kg laptop cost less than $730 with an 8-core, 16-thread AMD Ryzen 7 5800U processor, one that can easily take on Intel’s finest mobile CPUs. Yes you can get lighter laptops but they will be more expensive and slower. 


3. Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen 2

All 12th generation Intel Core processors support up to 64GB memory so if you want to get a bit more should your applications require it, then you will need to move to the Intel Xeon family. 


As such the ThinkPad P15 Gen 2 is ideal for engineering students, creatives, CAD and industrial professionals that require ISV certifications (this particular laptop supports 13 companies including Avid, Adobe and Bentley). Out of the big players, Lenovo is the only one that sells a laptop with the most powerful mobile Xeon processor (11955M) with 128GB of RAM and one of Nvidia’s most powerful mobile professional GPUs, the A5000 Max-Q with 16GB GDDR6 memory, for less than $10,000.


4. Razer Blade 14

A gamer’s favorite, the Razer Blade 14, gets a spot on our list of the most powerful laptops because of the presence of an AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX processor at its heart.


It is the fastest mobile processor from team Red that has shipped in commercial products. Razer engineers paired it with a gorgeous 14-inch QHD panel, an Nvidia Geforce RTX 3080 Ti with 16GB GDDR6 memory, 16GB DDR5 (sadly soldered on the board) and an array of features that sets it apart from other laptops based on the same AMD processor. That includes a individually factory calibrated display and a Qualcomm Wi-Fi chip. 

As this is an AMD platform though, you will not get Thunderbolt 4 technology; on the other hand, there’s no excuse for not having a bigger battery even if it means bumping the weight of the laptop from 1.78Kg to nearly 2Kg. As noted above, the memory is soldered so you won’t be able to upgrade it and the RTX 3080 Ti GPU is one with a lower TDP compared to its desktop brethren. 



5. Dell Alienware x15 R2

Alienware is Dell’s dedicated gaming range of laptops but it works well as a creative powerhouse as well, great for those who embrace hybrid working, a fact underlined by a Windows 11 Pro option. 


This is a relatively new laptop and features the best of what Intel has to offer when it comes to mobile processors; the Core i9-12900HK is the fastest laptop CPU available from its range. Teamed with the fastest laptop GPU currently available from Nvidia, the Geforce RTX 3080 Ti, 64GB of DDR5 memory and two 2TB SSD in RAID-0, it should munch through any 3D modeling, rendering or computational job without much sweat. 


Speaking of which, you may need to sweat a bit when carrying it as it weighs over 3Kg because of its 17-inch display and large 87WHr battery. Don’t expect it to last long as the combination of big display and power thirsty parts (up to 235W just for the CPU and GPU) will reduce battery life to less than a couple of hours.

 The Love of Christ for Us – Part 1: From the Birth to the Last Supper The story of Christ’s passion—the suffering and ultimate sacrifice of Jesus—did not begin with the betrayal in Gethsemane or the journey to Calvary.
