Help me choose a gaming laptop with a ~3500$ budget

Advice

(English is not my first language, sorry if the grammar isn’t the best 🙏)

So in around 2 months I want to replace my Alienware M15 R7 due to some underlying problems I had with it the last months.

I’ve been a big Alienware user ever since I was 12, but I wonder if now it’s time to change brands mostly because of the maintenance problems (99% of the time related to battery)

Some of the things I would like is:

- I like playing modded games (Skyrim, Baldur’s gate, etc) so I hope +4 TB isn’t out of my budget

- +RTX 5070, 5080 ti would be the ideal but I’m fine with 5070

- 64 RAM (this is very optional because of the current RAM prices lol,32 is good too)

- Some Portability, 16-inch or less (Enough to bring it to uni at least once per week)

I have family in the states so I can buy it from US stores and then sent it to them.
