    Fow what? Daz Studio I guess, but what else? How about budget and any practical considerations?

    I have an M4 MacBook Air that I will infrequently run DAZ Studio 4 on. Haven't tried the newer DS betas yet.

    The MBA can get quite warm on longer renders, so I prefer not to do any substantial DAZ rendering with it. 

    I think a MacBook Pro with active thermal management is what you'd need for the best results.

    I've been using an M4 iMac with satisfactory performance. Looking to get an M5 based Apple desktop system when those become available. Hopefully that will be soon. 

    Only reason I'm not using a MacBook Pro is I want one large screen without worrying about cluttering up my workspace with an external monitor and a laptop.  I'm 68 and my eyes get weary using a small screen for very long. :) 

    Hope my thoughts help.
