I recommend the Acer Aspire 5750G From sainsbury's. It has very good specification and is only 450. Best mid-range laptop on the market in my opinion.

alienware = overpriced dell

For fast rendering, you would need High RAM, I would go for a 13' Mac book pro, or if that doesn't suite you then go for a 800-900 Custom PC, where you can fit the laptop to your desires:)

Dont get an alienware they are way overpriced, get one with high ram

What's your budget? It's ridiculous that nobody has asked this. You can't recommend anything without a budget. Also, ignore all Alienware and Mac suggestions. If you would like an explanation, I'd be happy to give one.

Don't get an Alienware laptop. The brand name is all that is good in actual fact about a laptop from them.

I've previously had an Alienware, they aren't much better than your average priced Acer, Sony or any other laptop.

Somehow, all these flashing lights on thee laptop get the kids going. Urging them to step into their trap.

I can say that you should stay clear of an Alienware for sure.

Look at an average priced Sony, then upgrade to a PC suitable for your budget. Look into RAM, memory ect.

Alienware is over priced you can just look around and find a laptop with the same specs or similar specs for a lesser price.

What pluxio said rendering needs shite loads of RAM so the more the better !

LOL thats why im going up to 32GB

If you ask a question, it's usually good to participate in the resulting conversation, OP. Just give me a budget.

How about you mention a budget and then people can do some actual recommendations.

Anyway, 32GB of RAM is pretty pointless. You are a fool if you think hard drive space and RAM determine the speed of your PC.
What you should be looking at is a good processor and graphics card, and the rest will come along. Nowadays most PCs are equipped with at least 4GB of RAM (which is more than enough for the average user), let alone PCs with good processors such as Intel's i5/i7 that often come with 6GB/8GB.
