This is a very helpful thread. Thanks so much for enlightening me on the best system for smooth realtime playback. Looks like a high-end Alienware, MSI or ASUS will be my next purchase.

As I am away from home during the summer (staying in cooler Canada), I purchased a laptop to continue to work on my iClone projects (three months without iClone is too much...:P). I settled for an Alienware 17 R5 laptop with 16 GB of RAM and a GTX 1070 with 8 GB of VRAM. There is a version with the more powerful 1080, but people complained of overheating, so I went for its more modest brother. I can say that it has been working quite well. Dell lets you customize their products, so I made some changes to the base model, such as a larger system drive (a 512 GB SSD). I have a second regular hard drive of 1 TB and the an external hard drive of 4 TB. Between content and rendering, you need large amounts of space! The external drive is connected via USB 3 and has performed well. There is also a USB-C connection, which is even faster, I believe. I haven't used that yet. One reason to go for the Alienware is that there is an option to connect an external GPU, so if there is need I can have an additional more powerful card. I was always quite reluctant to consider a laptop, but I'm quite satisfied with what I've got. My system came to around $2,000, so that's what you're looking at.

Your problem, of course, is that "road warrior" aspect of your needs. For a laptop you want, essentially, the best gaming computer you can buy. So, pretty much something like a high end MSI. It will be pricey, and heavy, and eventually you will decide that maybe it's not worth carrying and you can just park it somewhere and use it there, but it's about your only choice for good iClone performance.

lunarny (10/6/2018) Thank you so much for your post! This makes a lot of sense, as I don’t seem to have any other issues and the work I’ve seen in the tutorials definitely has smoother real-time performance. Time to upgrade my setup! If you or anyone else has a suggestion on a powerful but roadworthy system that works great with iClone and CC, by all means please share. As I mentioned, I’ve been in Apple world for three decades so I’m out of my depth when it comes to knowing what specs will make the program run smoothly. Cheers, JeffThe 1080ti is what I would suggest the 11gigs of v-ram will come handy but 1070 with 8 gigs is a solid option on a tighter budget?

lunarny (10/5/2018) Hi everyone. It seems that the responsiveness of the characters is slowing down on my system and I'm wondering if it's my hardware or user error (not surprising if it's the latter, as I'm relatively new to IC and new to PCs in general, having used Apple for 30+ years). When using Motion Live and Live Face or FaceWare the realtime expressiveness of the characters is glitchy and seems to be dropping frames. Sometimes the motion is smooth, but between the smooth sections there's dropout that prevents getting a nice clean realtime performance. Any suggestions? I'm running IC 7.3.2127.1 and CC3.
Computer: Asus ROG 6771, i7 4720 HQ 2.60 Ghz 8GB RAM.
Thank you!One problem is likely the specs of your laptop, especially the GPU (a GTX 860M, it seems). I did a benchmark comparison between that and a more recent GTX 1070, which is about 6 times faster and also has double the VRAM. The 860M has 4GB, whereas the GTX 1070 has 8GB. GPU performance and amount of VRAM is the most important for iClone, and I believe your laptop is lacking in that area.
