Budget New Builder Questions
#6
Thank you everyone for taking the time on educating me on this new hobby... After really thinking about it and reading so much for the last two days. The wife said I had a option, get a newer laptop or build a computer at home. I thought about that for a couple hours. Does it make sense to get a laptop with a (1) 1070 gpu built into it? If I'm on the road that would help having a video card like that. If I build a machine at home it sits there until I get home and work on it. My current laptop I'm running hashcat I did a benchmark and got this result on it.

* Device #2: Iris Pro, 384/1536 MB allocatable, 40MCU

Hashtype: WPA/WPA2

Speed.Dev.#2.....: 8407 H/s (74.87ms) From what I'm looking at it's slow rate right?

I was thinking of really getting a alienware 15 laptop with
NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1070 with 8GB GDDR5 Overclocked or AMD Radeon™ RX 570 with 8GB GDDR5

What do you guys think about that? Since I do a lot of my work on the laptop would it be better to go that route? At the moment I have a mac 2015 model so getting a alienware would be a big change because of the OS.

Let me know what you guys think.
