Adequate laptop for Lightroom

The fact that this high end computer doesn't speed through your work indiates that something is interfering with LrC. It doesn't indicate you need an even better computer. However, determining the cause of slowness could is often difficult.

Some things to check (and I realize this is a small part of a very long list)

• Make sure you have the most recent Studio driver for your GPU. If you have a Game-Ready driver, uninstall that and install the most recent Studio driver.
• Make sure you anti-virus is not scanning the folder with the LrC catalog and not scanning the folder with your photos

Please post your System Information as Lightroom Classic (LrC) reports it. In LrC click on Help, then System Info, then Copy. Paste that information into a reply. Please present all information from first line down to and including Plug-in Info. Info after Plug-in info can be cut out as that is just so much dead space to us non-Techs and it takes up vast amounts of scroll space making the reply less readable and less likely that others will bother with your post. Also large amounts of text in a post also render the Translate function inoperable.

note: IMO your laptop sounds like more than capable for LrC
