I had a normal ThinkPad T590, for work. But I recently dropped it and the screen is busted, thought it’s better I buy something new than pay to repair. Since I’m already knees deep in image analysis, which requires a crap ton of RAM, a strong CPU and ideally a semi decent GPU, and just started getting into python coding, thought why not get a gaming laptop, it’ll make my life easier. Of course I already have access to a beast of a workstation, but sometimes it’s booked and you wanna do some work on your own laptop. Anyway, I saw the Zephyrus and thought it looks good, excellent RAM (32GB and can be upgraded to 48), excellent i9 (12900H), and of course the beloved 3080 Ti (and 2TB of SSD is greet for when I have to work because single images can be up to 4 GB sometimes).

What do you guys think? I’m fkn poor, I’m a researcher afterall, so I got this on installments from Amazon, please tell me I didn’t do an impulsive purchase.
