        Looks good to me. That 13th gen i5 seems to be the "sweet" spot for single threaded and multi-threaded performance. It scores very well for what it is on the Passmark's CPU single thread rating, even better than an M2 😉

          Cheers mate, at least I can rest easy knowing it's reasonable overall.

            That's a nice setup you'll have. It'll blaze through renders if you move to one that supports GPU rendering.

            Even on CPU it'll chew up renders fast enough.

              Ta Rich, this is suggested for monitor, occasional gaming use so I hope it will manage renders with good enough resolution. https://www.cclonline.com/xub2796qsu-b1-iiyama-prolite-xub2796qsu-monitor-27-inch-2560-x-1440-qhd-ips-panel-amd-freesync-black/
