No, it's an Alienware R51 with Intel Core Ultra 9 285K 3.2GHz Processor; NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 32GB GDDR7; 64GB DDR5-6400 RAM; 4TB Solid State Drive; Microsoft Windows 11 Home; 2.5GbE LAN; 2x2 Intel Killer WiFi 7 BE1750+Bluetooth 5.4; Liquid Cooler
I don't see it on the Dell site anymore, only more expensive, lesser configurations (good timing on my part?).
Yeah, I really want to put in the time to try out various games, but realistically, the whole point of getting a second computer and installing Linux was to be able to train and serve models, and switching between serving a model (that people in my house want to use at random times) and gaming didn't seem like a great choice. If I did get good results, I'd seriously consider wiping Windows 11 from my older machine (an older Alienware with a 4090), but to be honest, I'm perfectly comfortable on Windows desktop.
