Good morning everyone. I am new to the group and I come with a question: which of these 3 options is better to have a good performance in editing videos in FHD and 4K and creating 3D motion graphics in after effects? I ask you because in the place where I work they are requiring me videos in FHD and 4K, plus animations in After Effects with high motion load, also 3D renders in Maya, these are the only 3 options I can opt for. I know I'm basically asking for advice and I know that is valuable, but I'm asking for option 3, and IT is trying to lower the specs to options 1 and 2 (apparently these are gaming laptops) saying that this is enough for what I'm going to do, I would just like your comments as experts so I can do my best to opt for the best computer, I hope you can help me:

 

Option 1: DELL G15 5525

For 4K, you need 32 GB RAM:

Show that link to IT and tell them you need option 3 or option 2 upgraded to 32 GB RAM if possible.

 

You will also need some fast external or internal storage for media.
