TLDR; no, it’s cheaper to buy a new computer than upgrade, and a similar computer is about half the cost. But I encourage you to read this all. Also, I do own Framework 13, so I have experience with Frameworks. You say “Is it worth the money,” but it depends on how you look at it. My answer, however

Die Frage nach generellen Systemvoraussetzungen ist schwer zu beantworten - AutoCAD gibt es seit 1982, dementsprechend gering waren da die Anforderungen an die Rechenleistung. Für komplexe 3D Modelle mit Strömungssimulation braucht man deutlich mehr Rechenleistung als für 2D Zeichnungen. Das generel

I recently bought a gigabyte aero x16 with an Ryzen AI 9hx and the 5070. It's not super expensive, runs it great, has good battery life with some settings tweaked, and is a good office laptop. It's just one of the many options, but I like it

The specs are good enough for you to complete your degree without problems. HOWEVER that price for a refurbished machine with that specs is horrible. You can go for one of 2 routes, save some money with a similarly speed laptop, or go for a more powerful machine 1.- Save some money -Lenvo LOQ 15: Go

The upper model is 14-fb1013dx/B94GQUA#ABA. However in Europe such type 2 laptops are more expensive, and 1500 eur might not be enough to get it. For up to 1500 eur and with less than 2 kg weight, you might have to choose among type 3 gaming laptops only. Therefore one good type 3 option from German

It'll run well but it would be better to buy the Aero X16 with the 5070 because it's more color accurate and can get slightly better battery. Also, that 5070 has more VRAM so you can push it farther. I'd say get the Gigabyte Gaming A16 if you're using it mainly for gaming. For creative work like Ado

The only other thin and light gaming laptop is the Blade, but it has worse battery life and higher price and terrible customer support which is why I recommended the Zephyrus instead. If you’re okay with cheaper plastic and an IPS display I’d go for the Gigabyte Aero x16, but keep in mind that it’s

As others have pointed out already - if your main target is Unity 2D indie game development with an assumed Steam target then you'll likely have a much better experience on a native Windows machine. You don't need a high-end gaming laptop for what you intend to do. An upper-mid-range Windows laptop
