Could you recommend a new computer for me to model on? Currently, I have a regular i7 core samsung windows 8 laptop and i just model on blender. it's not a great setup.

but I'm interested in an HTC vive and gravity sketch.

this computer is finally starting to crap out and im thinking its time to upgrade. i always wanted one i can draw on too, like a wacom cintiq (pic related.) if possible i want both if not, that's ok, maybe i'll keep them separate.

Any advice/suggestions?

(pic related is my pathetic attempt at 3d modeling rendered on sketchfab)

Why are you asking without providing a budget?

I thought artists aren't interested in money?

I mean, in that case I'd say you should go for a quad-Titan RTX setup, dual Xeon W-3175Xs on an Intel Server board (maybe sit out for the rumoured 48-core Xeon coming out later this year, maybe gun for the 64-core Epyc instead), 1TB ECC RAM, probably like some multi-4TB SSD RAID array, get it all custom water-cooled, all the bells and whistles and shit.
Without budget no one can recommend you what you should get, especially for professional applications where it's literally "get the best you can". It's not some "i wanna play esports!" "ok get a ryzen 3 & gtx 1050" kinda thing.
