The catch is that you are using untested hardware. You have no idea if this will last, who will support what, and potentially risk money and your data.

Just to try and test this new hardware if it’s your main device. It’s a lot of risk. I feel confident running the system for a while now. Seeing more software come on board. Even for the extra money, I say go. I’m a dev/product designer, most of my work is coding, product development, product management and graphical design. It does everything I need faster, no lag.
