Laptop specs for Rhino

Rhino Windows Hardware
#1

G’day, came across what seems to be a great value buy for a second hand laptop for learning Rhino that is 18 months old. Can anyone let me know if it is worth the $800aud second hand as appears to the same spec new @$1950aud or look at something with a 11th gen cpu & RTX gpu as I get more experience with Rhino?

These are the specs:
Acer Nitro 5 AN515-55 15.6"
Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650ti
32gb RAM
512gb SSD
Windows 10 Home

Cheers

Although the specs are different, the GPU may be better. I’ve noticed this, and wonder what a new one would be?

Apparently, it just meets the minimum for GPU memory. The rest seems good, though it can be very dependent at what you want to model.

You can get an idea how fast it is for Rhino, comparatively, with Holomark:
