Dell's Precision Mobile Workstations are beasts. I have a 7750, whacked 128GB RAM into it aftermarket, and never looked back.

I can confirm - I have a Precision 7670 in pretty much the top spec(i7-12850HX, 128GB ram, 3080Ti) and it's an absolute beast. It blows my previous HP Z5 workstation desktop out of the water, it improved my compilation times by half. Really made my work more productive thanks to the crazy spec.

I do notice the HP workstation tier laptops have absolutely trash thermals.

You can't do anything remotely intensive for longer than 15-30 seconds before the thing thermal throttles and becomes a hot paperweight.

Replace the thermal paste, or use liquid metal if your heatsink allows

The thinness and lack of ports on the Precision doesn't bother you?

[gambiting]

You must be thinking of a different line of laptops - the Precision workstations are anything but thin. They are big and pretty heavy laptops with plenty of ports.

XPS are the ones with no ports. The Precision and Lattitude lines usually have enough ports, and come in a variety of thin/thick models.
