Based on the highly efficient NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture, these GPUs deliver a breakthrough in performance with AI-based DLSS 3 and ray tracing for ultra-realistic images. In addition, the Max-Q technology suite optimises system performance, power, battery life and noise levels for higher efficiency.

    Super PC

    Of course, adding memory is complicated, but apart from that the PC does its job well. I recommend this PC if the GE is no longer available.

    MSI Vector GP78

    Warning: the interior is very difficult to access! Updates (ram and ssd) must therefore be optimised.
    A new installation of Windows will necessarily require the presence of the Intel F6 driver on the key, otherwise ssd disks will not be detected.
    Otherwise, with 64GB of ram and a 4TB SSD, this MSI Vector is excellent.
