Hello, I am planning to purchase a new laptop primarily for programming. Gaming or the display are not crucial factors (unless there is a significant difference, I don't believe this applies here).

Dell Configuration: i7 12700h, 16gb ram DDR5, 120hz screen, 512gb ssd pcie gen3, RTX-3050 ti

MSI Configuration: i7 12700h, 16gb ram DDR4, 144hz screen, 512gb ssd pcie gen4, RTX 3050

(the UC version)

Assuming the prices are equal, which one suits you better?

Hello there, fresh face! Considering just the specifications (without focusing on the screen's refresh rate), I'd choose the Dell.

Thank you for the answer. I've just come across some mixed reviews regarding throttling. Do you know anything about this?
