Engineering student's laptop for 800 euro

    Hi All,

    I know that a similar thread exists but I would like to be more precise in what I need.

    I am an Aeronautical Engineering student and currently seeking a laptop for around 800 euro. (+- E100). I will be doing CAD/Solid Works and performing CFD (Fluid Dynamics) calculations on it using a software. I need something powerful enough for it to handle.

    I would like an SSD drive on it as it makes hell of a difference to me after I last transitioned from my HDD.

    I found THIS on Scan.co.uk and I believe its the best I will get. Any suggestions ladies & gents?

    Thanks for help :) !

    I've no experience with it but CFD sounds like something that could be pretty intensive. If it doesn't leverage GPU acceleration it may be worth looking at a little extra grunt.
