gollark: You might be better off just getting a gaming laptop and NUC/RPi/old rack server for your server needs.
gollark: I'm not sure why you would want a server-y laptop though, given that most of the value of a laptop is that it's somewhat portable and will so spend some time powered off and away from internet connectivity?
gollark: If the GPU is external it isn't a *massive* issue.
gollark: I guess it would be good if you get one of the thin-and-light sort of laptops.
