    Well, first of all, laptops are not the best to render your scenes.

    If you want to work in production you should build a work station.

    Budget wise, 2 graphics car at 500$ are mostly more performant than a single 1000$ GPU.
    Just beware of GPU memory.

    The latest AMD RYZEN processor appear to be very very very interesting price/performance wise.

    The 1080Ti is sure a solid choice and you won’t be bothered by memory limits with these 11Gb Vram.
    But I think that, if you can a couple of 1070 with 8 Gb will output more performances for rendering and 8GBof Vram are already very nice if you’re not rendering excessively complexe environement.
