Hello All,
I am in the market for a laptop with the following specs.
Supports at least 32GB of RAM. 64GB would be better if the premium is not too high. If the memory is not maxed out, it should be a matter of adding more sticks rather than throwing away what it already has installed. (I intend to run a bunch of virtual machines on this machine.)
At least 1920x1080 display. 3k or 4k would be "nice to have" but not essential.
13" to 15" display would be fine. A 17" machine had better be exceptional for me to consider having to lug something that big around. <snip> Any recommendations besides what I have mentioned?
The System76 Serval matches those criteria pretty well, except for weight (3.4 kilos!): https://system76.com/laptops/serval Up to 64GB RAM 1920x1080 in 15" or 17" i7 6700 or 6700k Geforce 970M or 980M It looks like a beast. A friend has used their laptops and desktops for a few years now and I'm pretty certain my next system will be from them. I've heard that their warranty/support is exceptionally good in the event that you need it too. Cheers, Jamon
