I'll take a Lenovo machine (ideally 32GB ram if an option) but do you still have the Quadro card you ran in it too?

Sons Rig: Asus TUF Gaming X-570, Ryzen 9 3900X, G.Skill neo  2x16Gb 3600's, Sabrent Rocket 1Tb M.2, Win10 Pro, Phanteks case, EVGA G5 850W.

 

NAS: DS1819+ - 52Tb in Raid6

 

My rig: HP Elitebook X360 Lappy with a 2Tb SN850.. woohoo.. I've retired!

One is currently in use as my plex server, and runs very well, the 9th gen can do the decoding/encoding stuff efficiently. 
IT's been my plex server for the last 3 or so years :)
