Newbie here
Whats the best laptop for this software?
Thanks for your help
I want to make a funny remark…but not today.
The best is what you can afford really.
Some guys run the very basic of laptop or desktops…heck I am using a 20year old desktop running windows 7 and works fine

It really depends on what software tools you’re going to be using.
The Firecontrol or Mach 3 software to run the CNC isn’t really demanding so most anything would be fine.
If you use Inkscape and Sheetcam for design & CAM then you can get away with a general purpose laptop.
If you’re going to use it to do design with Fusion360 then a gaming laptop is preferred because Fusion is really hard on a machine’s resources and benefits hugely from a good gaming style graphics card.
