I want to buy a laptop for a few purposes, not my main laptop:

  • Use it to run !localllama@sh.itjust.works stuff and Stable Diffusion.

  • Use it for games downloaded from repack sites. So for these two, it would need a decent GPU.

  • I would like to pull out the WiFi card. I have offline computers and online computers. No need for this to use the internet.

  • I would probably dual-boot Windows and Linux, or else have it boot Windows and use a live USB when I want Linux

Thank you all.

Money is no object.

There are computers with online GPUs?

OP is from the future, when GPUs are a subscription service that processes your graphics online.
