'17.3" Thin Bezel 4K/UHD 3840x2160 miniLED 120Hz Display, VESA DisplayHDR 1000' seems like a very good screen.

Title says 16GB DDR5. Details say 2x8 GB DDR4 with DDR5 Slots? I'm all about extra slots, but seems a little misleading if those slots ain't filled with DDR5.

There needs to be a video on flashing this to 130W bios and which power adapter to use to feed that power hungry 12th Gen alongside. The stock power supply falls on its face from reports online.

It's just a typo on the post. Should be DDR5.

You'd have a harder time keeping it cool with such a thin chassis and heatsink... I speak from experience owning a previous gen Aero.

You can install a 40 jiggawatt gpu, you ain't gonna be able to power it up past 70 - 90 depending on how much heat your CPU is also dumping into the heatsink. You'd be better off getting more performance water cooling the rig than you would flashing the BIOS for more watts.
