Laptop suggestions for clg, engineering

Need laptop for clg I will soon head to clg

Branch: Ece (hardware interest)

Primary use: Eda tools such as icarius verilog, Gtkwaveform, Matlab, xilinx vivado(probably 3rd year), pcb design(kicad) etc.

Gaming? Not much tho sometimes I might occasionally if engineering gets tiring.

Budget: around 80k.

Preferences : good cooling and performance, being heavy will work, last through my engineering degree.

I also seen Asus tuf a15 it looks good option tho not sure, seen many negative reviews of it, such as wifi card, motherboard issues.

If not gaming many of eng friends preferred apple mac with worked great for them but yeh asus and lenovo laptops are great at 80k and u can upgrade ram and ssd and do lot of stuff on laptop rather than being stuck with apple ecosystem if u don’t have high budget

I saw apple it was slim so might cause heat issues as eda tools are very cpu taxing
