    You could look into a refurbished MBP.

    Look for a laptop with

    CPU: Intel 8750h/9750h
    GFX: 1050TI/1660
    RAM: 16GB+
    Storage: Samsung 960/970 Evo or Intel 545s series ssd

    Those specs will fall well within your budget new or you could pick up used for about 3-400 less. Happy hunting.
