Laptop recommendations for Music Production?

Hi there, am looking for a new and powerful laptop that can handle music production quite well, but am not sure what to get. So far I've understood that its important for this laptop to have:

  • 32GB RAM (DDR5 preferably)
  • Top-notch processor
  • Good graphic card
  • at least 1TB of SSD Storage, planning on buying external ssd later.

Anyone have any good recommendations for this? The budget is around 2,250 USD / 2,137 EUR.

  • AFAIK music production is a huge variety and often requires special hardware. What are you planning to do with it? My SO started with FL Studio a few months ago and is trying to make some EDM. At the moment she is not even close to putting a strain on the laptop. It's a Lenovo V15 G4 with an Intel 13420h, 16GB Ram and a 1TB Drive.

    • Fl studio and Cubase are the two main pieces of software used.

  • If you're ok with using macOS, definitely go with a MacBook Pro. Otherwise, I'd pick a Framework laptop. If you really need a strong GPU, the Framework 16 is perfect for you. They're very upgradable and repairable, only the CPU is soldered in and can't be swapped.
