Deciding on Hardware. Any input is appreciated!

My goal is to have a device that will allow me to run Linux as a main OS and VM into Kali Linux, Windows, and Vulnerable Boxes (for Tryhackme and HacktheBox).

I can’t decide what makes the most sense:

  1. A beefed up laptop with a core i7 and 32GB ram (pros being portability)

  2. a NUC with the same specs (pros being the cheapest option)

  3. A beefed up PC with an i7 and 32+ GB RAM that I can remote into from a cheaper laptop.

I like the idea of #3 but isn’t remoting into my PC super slow? Won’t it be miserable to use my cruddy laptop that’s remoting to my PC to run VMs?

Any input is helpful!
