I want to buy a laptop that will work well for my photography hobby.  I need to take it on the road.  I am not that familiar with HP systems but hope to chooses a configuration that will be fast and powerful .  Any advice?

I use a gaming machine for my photography needs. It uses a top end i7 8750 6 core 12 thread CPU with plenty of processing power for multi tasking when I have Photoshop and lightroom open.

PLenty of ram (I use 16 GB) up to 32 GB depending on your needs.

And even though I dont game much, having a dedicated graphics card helps keep things running smooth.

I prefer having an SSD for my boot drive and an HDD for my photo storage and the Omen series can accomodate all of those requirements.

Im using a 17 inch 4k screen which gives me plenty of real estate and the 4k's color accuracy is out of this world.

But thats my opinion. Hope it helps.
