Hello everyone! I hope everyone is doing all well and fine! I have come here to ask for some technical advice pertaining to the purchase of an electronic item. I didn't know any other thread to ask this question so I came to the Chit Chat thread.
From what I understand is that many/some members on this forum have very good
knowledge and
background in computers, computer science, computer engineering, laptops, desktops, PCs in general, applications like MS PowerPoint, MS Excel, MS Word etc.
So I want some advice on buying a laptop
. My budget is around Rs.40,000 to maybe Rs. 50,000. Preferably from brands like H.P. or DELL. So this laptop will be used by me (as I am a student and a laptop can come in very handy to handle a lot of tasks) and my mother too as she wants to use it for her own work. Most of the time it will be used by me and secondly my own mother. My mother says she wants to use it for trading and viewing the stock market LOL, alongside some other tasks too.
So what do I expect/want from my laptop
? Let me list some of them.
As someone who is a fervent defence and STEM enthusiast, I like to read & learn a lot about missile systems, aviation, warships, tanks, guns, space missions, spacecrafts, Astronomy, Biology, and so much more, I have always wanted to try my hands at making 3D models of things like below.
Like said before, I want to create 3D models of aircraft, warships, missiles, spaceships, architecture, robots etc.

A lot of people have suggested me to use a very popular software called Blender. Through Blender one can do a lot, and not just be limited to 3D modeling. Through Blender we can a wide variety of tasks like Animation, Visual effects, Game Development, Rendering, simulation, video editing, 3D printing (One can 3D Print his/her own Design!) etc.
But if my memory serves me right then I remember someone (Who has his own laptop) personally telling me that it's a very heavy software and that not many laptops can handle Blender properly without getting hanged or the device crashing constantly. So I will be using Blender once in a while or maybe even a lot but not at hours at a stretch daily. So I am afraid that my laptop within a budget of Rs 40000 - Rs 50000 will not be able to handle it or maybe I am wrong? Are there H.P or DELL laptops (or other PC Brand) which can handle an advanced software such as Blender comfortably without any arising issues? I hope I can get come confirmation on this.
Also I want to use this Laptop to learn coding languages at home like Python, JavaScript, Java, C++, C# etc. There are materials available online to the common netizen in the form of online videos
, tutorials, apps, Books
by many reputed authors, Coding teachers, online sites and more. So I want to use my laptop for learning coding which I am confident I will be able to do so on a laptop of this budget range.
Also it should last for a long time, at least 8-10 years at maximum. I am aware that I have to take good care of the laptop such as routine maintenance, downloading of anti-virus software, cleaning dust that may settle over it, storing it in a cool and dry place, making sure that it doesn't fall down or has some liquid like water fall onto it. I will do my part, rest depends on the quality of the device.
But overall I am sure that my laptop will be able to handle almost every task I throw at it, but the part that is bothering me is the use of blender, will it be able to run it or not? That's my concern. Maybe I will have to pay a visit to my nearby electronics retail center and check out what models are there. I hope someone can give me some good advice on a good model which can fit all the criteria I have listed.
@Bhartiya Sainik sir you have mentioned that you are from IT sector and did computer engineering, maybe you can help me.
Your response will be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance.
I changed their screen, RAM, HDD, few time but their motherboards are still holding, that's important,
