I have your same requirements, except I'd probably settle for 16GB of RAM. And yeah, I know I could get more bang for the buck with a tower machine, but since I'd be using this on the go in university I'd prefer to have a decent laptop before starting. I already have what is now a low-spec tower that I'll probably bring along, but when I had to run some TF for my thesis it handled it well enough, so I'm more interested in investing into a more mobile option to carry with me at all times. I'll look into the Alienware, any idea how it compares to the Omen 15?

The Omen machines are certainly cheaper, and you can get one with a GTX 1050. Many times laptop vendors will charge crazy high prices for preinstalled memory. You could probably get one with the minimum memory, buy 32 GB of RAM from crucial.com and come out ahead. I did that with a Lenovo desktop replacement laptop in 2012 and it has been going strong with a midlife upgrade to an SSD C: drive.
