I’m looking at a laptop that has this processor with 32GB RAM (DELL xps 9310), id like to run about 3 vms (Domain Controller, Server and a Client), and also a local install of sql server on it, plus google chrome, slack, vpn client and Remote Desktop.

Im not really that knowledgeable about Windows laptop processors as I usually buy MacBooks although need this for work, just wondering if anyone has any experience of running this CPU and what the performance is like please ?
 
OK thank you all for the suggestions, and thanks tommoT.Striker for the comparison with your machine, ive cancelled the order due to the processor being slightly underpowered. I understand these processors are lower TDP due to thermals due to being targeted for ultra books from what I can gather with my limited reading up on them the weekend.

Ill prob just end up with a new MacBook again and forget about running VMs locally lol
