I'm considering the G718 or G518 setup. I haven't found any reviews yet. What are your thoughts? The specs look solid for what you need—Fusion 360, light SolidWorks, and everyday tasks. A GPU would be handy if you ever want to play games, but this isn't a gaming rig.

G518 offers more CPU-focused games but is a bit older than the Ryzen 7700, so I’d recommend G718 if you’re okay with the price change. It can handle any request and will provide better upgrade potential for about five years ahead.
