What kind of laptop should I get to run Flexi off of?

[Buckley1313]

We are currently running Flexi Print and Cut 21 off of an old Dell Laptop, but we are looking to upgrade to a new laptop and to flexi design. What are some recommendations
on a good laptop to get?

Look at your specs on the software on flexi. I got the cheapest desktop I could find with the specs for flexi.

btw: I called up flexi recently for an issue I was having. They immediately wanted me to update to flexiconnect. It looks like they are trying to get everyone on board for that version.

Flexi rewards very Fast storage, and very Fast Single Core CPU performance.

Fastest SSD storage on the computer, moving the files to the pc instead of opening the file over the network., and AMD Ryzen cpus tend to have better single core performance vs Intel with better multi core performance.

GPU performance almost doesnt matter for flexi, GPU may help for Adobe products, but flexi is old school. Even the newest Flexi is this way.

I recommend something in the $800-$1000+ range. If you dip into the cheapest 300-$600 range those are usually slow and frustrating.
