What is your currency? We can get this sorted out only after you tell us that.

400 isn't gonna get you a laptop capable of speedy rendering. (Speedy too me is twice the time of the actual video, although I render vids faster than real time with my beast of a Desktop )

That loosens it up a bit.
Question 1: Where will this be most of the time while in use?

In that case, a desktop will suit you much better. A laptop will not have much rendering capabilities at all for 400, however in a desktop, you should have no problem. Are you open to building your own desktop?

I probably could, just with abit of time.
Or my uncle may be able to help me..

That's only if you could tell me what parts to get + what they are used for..?
