Hi,
I'm planning on getting the asi585mc camera for imaging planets and I'm aware that I need fast fps which needs a fast capture. I'm a total newbie on this and opinions vary elsewhere on the Internet. Can I get away with i5, 8gB Ram, and 512 ssd nvme with usb3.0? Or would you advise differently? For post processing (both dso and planetary) I'm likely to get an i7, 1tB nvme and 16gB/32gB RAM, but I don't want an expensive laptop outside in the dark, waiting for me to knock it onto the floor or something.
Hope you can help with the benefits of experience.
Thanks
Mark
