can laptop run zbrush?

Hello, I’m looking to buy the Lenovo Y520. But I don’t think it would make that big of deal. What do you guys think?

ZBrush is all about RAM, if it has it you’re good…

No problems with laptop.

Here are the Z-brush minimum requirements:

thank you very much

I’ve used both max 8 and zbrush 2 on a single-core 1.2 ghz laptop with 1 gig of ram and a radeon 7k something video chip. That was out of necessity, and i wouldn’t call it an optimal working environment. But it worked, and it got the job done. Now thats an ancient laptop now, so if you get something along the lines of what you’re describing it should work fine. Just be sure to get a decent video card in there. You don’t need high end stuff, but stay clear of stuff like “intel extreme graphics” or whatnot.

I used to work only on my laptop for about 2 years without no problem. As time the laptop you want to buy has good memory, Zbrush can run well.
