I'm no expert though I've helped a few friends spec or build out AutoCAD and Solidworks rigs. Googling "best Autocad laptops" will get you a nice list to start from, though they'll be pricier (as their "workstation" class) machines than mid-level gaming rigs, but better suited for what you're doing...
Thanks for the info.
