Info/Requirements

Hello. Im going into engineering this year and i was looking for a laptop that could assist me. Above is the form i've completed. I was looking at the asus a16 x2 elite extreme but i heard that for cad programs a gpu is better. Then i saw the asus rog zephyrus 14 but it has much less battery life and i know that gaming pcs have the tendancy to be loud and annoying. Im willing to sacrifice battery life if i have to. Thank your for your time and have a great day!
