Hello Support, I'm looking to upgrade my laptop for music and stock investing use. For the music, the software program requires AVX Support, which I've never heard of. Is that available on all/most laptops? Will I get that with any new HP laptop? For the stock investing I need a laptop with programmable hot keys and 16GB RAM that can work with 2 external monitors (3 screens total). Any suggestions on what to consider? Thanks.

Hi,
I want to upgrade so I can use some music software and those requirements are -
CPU
Intel Core i5, i7, i9, Xeon (all Gen 5 and above)
AMD Quad Core
AVX Support required
Operating System
Windows 10 64 bit
Screen Resolution
Minimum: 1024x768
Recommended: 1280x1024 / 1600x1024
Also, I need to have 2 external monitors and hot keys, which I think will be standard but I've never set them up before, so I'm trying to figure out which HP laptops will do those things.
Thanks again.
