What is the best Macbook Pro for 3Ds Max?

I've been searching the ideal laptop for my job. My software is Autodesk 3DS Max. I know it's for Windows but my friends use the same software and they're using Macbook Pro bootcamp as well but it crashed every now & then. I need a laptop that is light weight, has a video card and a screen that is perfect for graphics. Reviews on the Macbook Pro Retina are quite positive but I read about the ghost screen, lags etc. :-/

The 13 inch wont do you much good in terms of Graphic rendering and transcoding for the following apps, AutoCAD, FCS, Premiere CS5.  The 15" however has a dedicated GPU and also an integrated GPU, if I were you I would go for the high-end 15" Macbook Pro.  Just look at the specs.....

    what is the best macbook pro for video editing dslr footage?

    It is the GPU that is important.  All the CPU's will be fast enough.  If you can affords it, the 15" with the NVIDIA GPU is the best.

  • What is the best MacBook Pro for me? (Budget = 1500$)

    Hello guys, I am looking forward for buying a new MacBook Pro. But I don't know which one. I want a 13 inch model that can run very good. In 2010 I bought a MacBook White and I should probably say that it was worth every penny I spent. I loved it so much but this year the trackpad would not move, lagging is an issue but it still works fine now. I want to buy a new MacBook Pro that is good.
    I will use it for the following :
    - Microsoft Word / google docs
    - Photoshop
    - Game programming
    - Gaming (League of Legends, Football Manager 2014/15/16/17)
    - Programming
    - Researching ( EXTREMELY IMPORTANT)
    - Homework
    - And personal use (Facebook, and surfing the web)
    My budget is 1500$, okease answer as fast as you can!!

    givemethemac,
    if you still have your white MacBook, then it seems like fixing its trackpad and installing more RAM and/or replacing its hard disk with a SSD would cost significantly less than $1500. It sounds as though if the trackpad were fixed and the lagging were resolved, that you would still be happy to use it.

  • What is the best macbook pro backpack

    I am wanting to purchase a macbook pro 13' backpack and i am frustrated with looking so which one is best to keet an mac iphone and ipad in?

    When it comes to the best it's impossible to beat the quality produced by Brentheaven. Would Apple feature more Brenthaven products on thier site than any other if they weren't amazing? As far as backpacks for the Macbook Pro the Brenthaven ProStyle Backpack is the top of the line for quality and protection.

  • Best macbook pro for gopro editing

    hi. i am new to the editing world and would like to get a macbook pro, i would use it for homevideo editing from a gopro, holding music and possibly watching the odd movie on it.
    i have no clue on what sort of macbook pro id need but id like a retina display?  what are the pros and cons of retina? and i would also like the macbook pro to not be slow or lag or crash while im edititng.
    so if someone out there could write back with exact specifications to what they think would be the best macbook pro for me that would be great.
    thanks
    Ross

    The best one is the model without the word "Book" in it... 
    You don't say what you want to edit, but in general, editing is a horsepower game so you'll want a lot of RAM, a fast system disk/SSD and the fastest processors and video board available. Don't expect to do much on the battery because all those resources (plus your external media drives) will severely limit your battery life.
    You may also want an external monitor and plan on either USB 3.0 or Thunderbolt external drives for media and scratch storage. The bigger, the better.
    Hope this helps

  • What is the best antivirus software for a Macbook Pro...I recently received a message from Google that someone made an attempt to hack into my mail account so I needed to change my PW and verify myself as the user.  The message suggested that I run a scan

    What is the best antivirus software for a Macbook Pro...I recently received a message from Google that someone made an attempt to hack into my mail account and I needed to change my PW and verify myself as the user.  The message suggested that I run a virus scan to check for sny malware or other types of viruses.  I do not have any software for this and up until now have not had a problem....any help is appreciated.  I would like a simple but effective solution!

    It's worth noting that if your Gmail has been hacked, it would likely have nothing to do with your MacBook.  Hacking web based email is fairly common and it doesn't require any access to your machine whatsoever.  In the same way that you can simply go to the Gmail webpage through any browser, any hacker can use the same method.  It doesn't mean your machine has been compromised in any way (and it has likely not been).  I have never received an email from Google of this nature.  I have received notifications when someone has attempted to create an account with my name in which they basically say that there is no action required if you're the rightful owner.

  • What is the best 500GB HDD for a 2007 macbook pro

    what is the best 500GB HDD for a 2007 macbook pro. This is a pre unibody machine.
    I am upgrading at the minute and can't make my mind up. I need a 7200rpm drive, but have heard some stories concerning overheating etc.
    These are the drives I am looking at: Seagate Momentus, Hitachi Travelstar and Western Digital all 500GB, running at 7200rpm.

    If you haven't already, you might look a the user comments at http://www.newegg.com on those hard drives. If you don't get other comments here, you might post in the MBP discussion (this is the iMac discussion) at https://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook_pro

  • What is the best protective case for 2011 13" Macbook Pro

    What is the best protective case for 2011 13" Macbook Pro (that can withstand an active 4 year old :).   My 4 year old plays with the teaching apps on my iPhone 4 in the otterbox case and its great - the bulkiness of the otterbox not an issue and I love being able to give the phone to him and feel completely comforatable. I would love to find something to protect my Macbook Pror. Thanks for any help!! 

    I would definitely go for a Hardsheel or a Perforated Hardshell Case
