I am new to Chief Architect. I purchased the Home Designer program because I do some residential space plan and design for friends and family. I was previously hand drawing main plans, using Room Sketcher for #D and walk thru program and Lowes cabinet designer program for more detail cabinet plans. the purchase of CA was to hopefully simplify to one program and save time although I know there will be some learning curve. I am searching for a new computer and wondering if there are suggestions. I would like to have a second monitor as well and had thought about a gaming laptop that meets all the requirements on CA website and then some. Having the laptop gives me flexibility to take work with me when I am traveling. The Laptop I found is an MSI and has two hardrives. One TB of HDD and 512 SDD. Also 6 GB video card, 17.3 screen, 16 GB ram. Any thoughts? I am new to drawing digitally other that what i mentioned. Excited to delve into CA and want to be sure I have the right tools.
Thanks!
