You're on the right track with the specs honestly, but yeah that model has a pretty bad return rate which is worth taking seriously for a laptop you'll be depending on through your degree. Might be worth checking these out — same RTX 5060 performance or better, better reliability track records, and some decent discounts right now: ASUS ROG Strix G16 RTX 5060 — $1,269.99, 5% off MSI Crosshair A16 HX RTX 5060 — $1,279.99, 11% off Lenovo LOQ RTX 5060 — $1,479.99, 10% off Lenovo Legion 5a RTX 5060 OLED — $1,894.99, 15% off Alienware 16 Area-51 RTX 5070 Ti — $2,487.99, 5% off The ROG Strix and MSI Crosshair are probably the sweet spot for aerospace workloads at that price. Legion 5a is worth the stretch if you want an OLED panel for CAD work. Alienware is the beast option if budget allows.
