New Razer Blade 15 for Game Development (Unreal Engine 5)

Hey folks, any game devs on here using a new Razer Blade 15 for Unreal Engine 5?
I'm currently still using my 16GB RAM, Blade 14 with 1060, which was great for UE4, but is now clearly struggling and sounding like a rocket ship trying to take off for most of the day.

I need the laptop mostly for work (UE5), but will occasionally be gaming on it too. I plug in a 4K monitor when at home. Portability is important to me, hence looking at the 15 rather than 17".


So I'm looking for a new workhorse with at least 32 gig of RAM, but am torn between the various screen resolutions available. Also, unsure of whether I need the i9 or whether the i7 is OK.

I'm guessing the 3080ti is going to be best, but how does it hold up in terms of noise?

Any game devs out there using UE5 on a new Blade? Any opinions? Will the i7 3070ti hold up, or should I just max out the specs?

Cheers!

As you say, you'll need at least 32GB rams if you want to get comportable with Unreal Engine 5. Other specs are currently great. No needs to change if you're using at least i7 and 3060ti.
