Also, How much of a difference would it make if the CPU were an Intel i7-3630QM Mobile Processor (4x 2.4GHz/6MB L3 Cache) ?

Answer
It'll do just fine. Those are some pretty good specs.

On a loose $1500 budget, what is the most productive configuration for a laptop intended for Adobe CS6?

Manny

I'm planning on using the laptop with Adobe Premiere, Photoshop, and After Effects mostly for editing DSLR video and photographs. I need something that will be able to handle multiple HD video layers, some 3D rendering, music production, etc. Is this possible? NOTE: I'd prefer not to hack my video card but I can if I absolutely have to.

Answer
You need something with an extremely fast CPU and lots of RAM. Graphics card doesn't matter as much when it comes to everything you mentioned except 3D modeling. I suggest you look for a workstation-style build, and not a gaming build.
Something like this:
i7-38XXQM and above
16GB+ of RAM
SSD! Solid State Drives are very important if you want your programs and projects to open fast! I suggest either a hybrid drive or an all-out 256GB SSD.
Any graphics card over a GT630M or 7670M will do.
