So I want to get a new laptop as I pursue a career in cybersecurity. The laptop I've got rn is fine, but if I'm gonna run the big boy stuff like Kali Linux, I want some really good hardware that can run what I need with ease. My current laptop. The most taxing thing I've ran on this thing is Doom: Eternal, which chugged along at 10fps but was still playable. As much as I enjoy gaming, though, my priority is a machine that can handle cybersecurity tasks with little issue. Budget is around $1K. I could probably buy something higher, but I'd rather not drain all of my savings. What should I check out?

Ugly In The Morning posted:What kind of things are most important to cyber security? CPU, GPU, RAM? CPU and RAM more than anything else. A lot of memory and strong processing power is essential when running the various tools and software. Graphics are more of a plus.
