I want to buy a laptop for a few purposes, not my main laptop:

Use it to run [email protected] stuff and Stable Diffusion.
Use it for games downloaded from repack sites. So for these two, it would need a decent GPU.
I would like to pull out the WiFi card. I have offline computers and online computers. No need for this to use the internet.
I would probably dual-boot Windows and Linux, or else have it boot Windows and use a live USB when I want Linux

Thank you all.

Money is no object.

offline GPU

There are computers with online GPUs?

OP is from the future, when GPUs are a subscription service that processes your graphics online.

Lol, what a dystopian future...
