Software & Accessories / Are Ultrabooks Fast enough?
« on: September 08, 2012, 10:49:55 PM »
I'm considering getting a new laptop.
There are these new slim Ultrabooks such as http://www.lenovo.com/products/us/laptop/thinkpad/x-series/x1-carbon/ - one of the few that supports 8 GB RAM.
The question I have is how well do these CPUs cope with basic post-processing, eg DPP or LR?
Has anyone used one for this purpose? Are they fast enough?
I know for the same price, you can get a normal size, normal spec laptop. However the idea of carrying an Ultrabook sized laptop while loaded with all the camera gear is quite appealing.
