Portable Workstations for Sketchup

the new Dell Alienware 15 with nVidia GTX 980m avail and being 20% slimmer as well as a little bit lighter...
-
Its nice, but still a bit bulky regarding the original requirements of this post. The latest XPS 13 appears to fit the bill well.

Dell XPS 13 Looks like a fantastic laptop!

... is sexy but shared intel Graphics HD 5500 only... i.e. switching of the SU hardware acceleration (= OpenGL) might be required.... which may work with a fast CPU and low-poly count models.

You may wish to bookmark http://www.notebookcheck.net as it allows extensive comparisons and benchmarks. Here is the info on the 'debacle' graphics chipset: http://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-FirePro-M4100.104958.0.html
Good Luck

Also interesting is the gfx card list - it gives an idea how the card performs in comparison to other cards. The AMD FirePro M4100 there is currently at place 145 (1 is the best), which is worse than the gt740M so maybe that's why heavy models didn't work for you.

For smaller things it seems to work just fine.
I've just replaced the Asus TaiChi with a Lenovo Y5070 (i7 CPU, Maxwell GPU version). Apart from the size and quality differences, I'm generally speaking, happy - I just need to calibrate the monitor (and external monitor).
