This is also another great site to buy from while allowing you to customize them; as if buying directly. Even with many models from brands such as ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte for example.

Just be sure to research the model firstly; as there is "some" junk on here as well; but not as bad as say Newegg, Amazon and alike.

you should avoid buying a too thin laptop. when the laptop gets thin, the cooler gets thin too. the airvents also gets narrow. what you need is something with good airflow and good cooling. what hardware it have is also relevant but, even the best hardware gets bottlenecked by bad cooling.

Avoid Laptops wirh 17.3 inch screens. There to heavy to carry unless your just using it at home.

i have a pc with an 18.4, that is even larger. it was not an issue for me to carry.

It's true that a desktop is preferable, but if you've got the money to burn on luxuries like a high powered laptop, go for it.

The Framework 16 is thinner than some, but it's a powerhouse and is fully repairable, so you don't have to use heat gun and pry tools and exotic screwdriver heads to get inside and touch up the thermal compound or replace the battery once it starts getting weak.

If you're going to college, you could get by with just a Raspberry Pi.

I am looking myself as I live in a flat in the UK. You need to look like me one that has 4GB GPU like the 3050/3050TI or 6GB at least. 8GB VRAM would be nice but expensive here in the UK.

AMD GPU sadly you will not find any or maybe two at most.
