Sure, here is the translated text:
Hello guys, I was thinking of taking advantage of Amazon's minor discounts these two days to replace my laptop. Budget under 1000€, but flexible.
Usage:

• Mainly music production - in the studio, I have my main PC which is a desktop, so the laptop would only be an extension for working on the go or for live performances (not very often). At least 16GB of RAM and a CPU that can handle projects with many plugins.
• Light video editing for Instagram - I rarely record in 4K, almost always in FHD. I use Premiere Pro and need to handle several video tracks together.
• Light gaming - I mainly play on the desktop in the studio, but if there's a chance to play some Rocket League or Apex Legends (at very low quality) and the laptop can handle it, I would. Anyway, it's not the most important thing, I can do without it, but not the other two.

I'd like to be on Windows, no Mac. And portability is a factor, I need to keep it in my backpack. Here are the laptops I was looking at on Amazon:

Thanks for the help

 

of those all, only HP Victus has nVidia graphics card which is especially useful for AI stuff, video processing and light gaming,
it has "only" 512GB storage and 16GB ram, but I bet both can be user-upgraded later eventually (something like 2TB NVME and 64GB ram in future)

 

I also need new laptop. after you buy one can you come post what you buy and how good it works?

 

I recently faced a similar laptop hunt and ended up finding something that might be right for you. I needed a laptop that could handle music production and light video editing, but still be portable enough to carry around easily. I went with a model that had 16GB of RAM and a decent processor, which has been great for running multiple plugins and video tracks in Premiere Pro.
I found that flexibility in specs and portability were key for my setup, and it’s been really handy for taking to places like the Prague Film School. That place’s environment reminded me how important it is to have reliable gear for both work and play.

DPC Latency is the main problem of laptop computers.
Not enough cooling -> CPU throttling -> audio crackles when using realtime DAW.

When buying a laptop you first need to evaluate DPC Latency, if the computer allows realtime audio handling.
It's very tricky to evaluate because most of the time you dont have access to the computer before you buy it.

Cooling problems are often related to dedicaced GPU (NVidia RTX, for exemple), so the best way to avoid DPC Latency is to avoid gaming GPU for audio.
But for video editing GPU is a very big benefit, as far as video calculation is not realtime (it's rendering) latency is not really a problem.

As you can understand, it's difficult to get a laptop for both gaming/video editing AND realtime audio with 100% DPC latency free.

DPC latency checker is here : https://www.resplendence.com/latencymon (free download)
and at https://www.notebookcheck.net/ they use this tool on their laptop reviews, so if the laptop model is tested there you can evaluate if it is a good solution for realtime audio ...
