I haven't found any good laptops from Dell, Lenovo or Microsoft that combined the features I want. I want a "desktop-replacement" CPU, good cooling and without GPU. There are quite a few gaming laptops that fit the bill, except the unnecessary GPU and high price (and ugly styling).

If you want a desktop replacement CPU I'm afraid the price is going to be high whatever you find as it will be a specialist machine. I'd expect $2500 and upwards.

Those 3 companies are probably the closest you're likely to find for high-spec non-gaming machines.

The only other thing I can think of is the Framework laptop. CPU is a laptop CPU but a good one, 32GB RAM, great expansion and repairability, ~$2600 on pre-order. Intel only though for now I believe.
