No, I'm not getting a PC because I move locations every now and then
I'm considering replacing my two-year-old GTX 1650 HP Pavilion 15 Gaming laptop with an RTX 3060/3070 HP Omen 16 because I'm going to start film and animation design college next month. The majority of the first year will be spent learning 3D design and animation using Blender and Adobe applications (Most definitely After Effects). I'm a little worried that I'll waste money since my current laptop may or may not be more than enough to do the job.
Is it worth it, or should I just get an external SSD? My current one can run After Effects and Blender alright, it's just that I feel like maybe upgrading can further improve my workflow (especially on playbacks) which can save a lot of my time
