Light laptop for 3D blender and some gaming ($1.5-2k-USA)

Laptop Request US

Hi I’m looking to sell my Alienware M15 R4 to get a lighter, less noisy, and better less hot laptop 😅 I have it for the past 4 years and it is still functioning perfectly fine, but recently got a powerful PC so I’m looking to replace my Alienware with a lighter laptop that I can carry around in my backpack more easily. My main uses are some gaming (league of legends, valorant) and 3D blender for my side job when I want to work at a cafe instead of at home.

Thank you.
