    I'm considering ordering from them, but I never saw someone who use or tested one of these.

My time is to valuable to waste on a crappy os.


    My new 2018 6 core pro gave me a ton of issues with audio glitches and rops in TRaktr vS my late 2011 15 incher..... So it all depends on who you ask....Rekordbox works flawless but i assume it doesnt stress machines as traktor does....also because of the touchbar and new chips on the macs u need to tweak a few things to get around this....Ive used traktor on my MSI gaming laptop just to check and after changing the NVME driver DPC latency is perfect.

    Ran traktor a lot on my old 2011 iMac. This was the reason I switched to rekordbox. Traktor has a lot of problems that they weren’t fixing. Definitely a traktor issue.

    If you're not doing low latency production with hardware mixed with software, you are fine with a laptop.

    Get something with an 8750H CPU and 16GB of RAM. Chances are, that combination will come with dedicated graphics.

    You'll be set for quite a while.

    Holy hell, those look like they've come straight out of the mid-00s! Looks might not be everything, but you gotta give me something to catch my eye!
