Besides the lack of OLED display, the limited RAM on AMD laptops is another showstopper then. I want a minimum of 64GB ECC, which I can get on a Thinkpad with an Intel Xeon CPU.


The Alienware M15 r5 Ryzen édition (amongst others) does support 64GB of RAM, but not ECC.


It also isn't an all-amd system, so your external displays and prime offloading all become way more awkward.


I have one - prime offloading works exactly the same as on Intel. As far as external displays it's very simple, when I plug one in it is owned 100% by the NVidia GPU. Which is not an issue because I have access to AC.
