So, i'd like something balanced: good screen, if possible QHD or FHD (i don't care about refresh hate, 60hz is fine, although it's hard to find a powerful laptop with 60Hz nowadays).
Good heat system, i don't want to overheat it, since i want it to last some years. I guess AMDis better than intel now in terms of performance and temps? I was thinking about this Alienware R5 Ryzen Edition, but i'm not sure, Of course i'd like a 3070, but i guess my budget is not enough to buy a balanced laptop with a 3070, and i'm not sure about 2070 x 3060 (i've seen a ASUS TUF for 1500$ with a 3070, but it looks like a performance-only laptop). Also, if it has 16gb of RAM, i'd like to be able to upgrade it later.

Thanks very much.
