💻 CUK TUF Gaming F17 Notebook (Intel i7-11800H, 64GB RAM, 2TB NVMe SSD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050Ti, 17.3-inch FHD 144Hz Display, Windows 10 Home) 17 Inch Gamer Laptop Computer - ASUS Review

64GB Ram 1 TB NVME version bought. As soon as I got it, I let it run through the steps with no surprises. I then blew it out, installed a 2TB EVO 970 in slot 2 and booted fresh Windows 10 along with Arch Linux in a dual boot configuration.

Computer works great! Thanks also for the computer backpack. :). that was not to be expected.
