Dell precision laptops are a nice bit of kit but it’s not difficult to spend real crazy money on them so they aren’t for casual usersNot a gaming desktop, but a work laptop set up for intense 3D cad work and finite element and other numerical modelling, both 2D and 3D. As a side trick it also rips it up with gaming too . The entire lot is a tax deduction through my company. Bonus! I purchased it in August 2021 when prices were sky high. I needed a decent setup so was sort of stuck between a rock and hard place.
Laptop: Dell 7760 Precision 17" mobile workstation (~$10k)

Sad that Dell has gone with proprietary memory on their new stuff. I hate proprietary though last I read they were uncharacteristically going to open up the spec and make it a standard
Pity the industry hasn’t standardised on ECC memory for all as everyone’s data, including grannies pictures and video is precious and deserve such a memory subsystem.
