If it were me, I'd probably budget for a cost effective dock (<$50), monitor(s), mouse, and optionally a keyboard.
I find myself much more productive with a couple screens: reference screen 1 while creating an email, presentation, coding, etc. on screen 2. I was even decently satisfied with a basic dock, mouse, single monitor, while using the keyboard of the laptop and the laptops screen as my second screen. (Recently got back to 2 full monitors.) The size difference between screens bothers some people too much; just bothers me a little. Still, much better than single screen IMHO.
I feel like you could get a laptop with good ROI for your use for about $600 or so.
Yes I'm sure plenty will tell me about how bad this is etc. It can be kept at mid 50s temp core clock and low 70s mem temp. I checked into all of the data. Called up MSI to confirm taking battery out doesn't void warranty etc.
Ryzen 7 5800H has more cores/threads/clock speed.
The rest seems to be same or around. TUF screen was 144Hz vs Dell 120Hz, but quality/color accuracy almost the same. Tho TUF was 17" with slightly better thermal, was cheaper and there was few open boxes near my place for less than $740 (and returns without (?) original package for even less).

Remoting into work system. Using the basic Office programs. Thats about it. Very basic. Just want a laptop with decent speed when opening and navigating the programs.
