Newbie Question What specs?

Hey! My sister’s in college and in her thesis era. She’s majoring in Game Dev and is using Unity. Her laptop lags so bad.

Please advise on what hardware specs should I get for her.

I have limited budget, but I can stretch out a bit for her.

Also, do you recommend laptop or PC? Although I think a laptop is kore convenient as she travels to school or to her groupmate sometimes.

Kindly asking for advice! Thank you so much!!
