The OP system76 does. And if you want to upgrade to more then the price premium skyrockets.

True. I'm really saying it would be silly to build a system like that with so little memory and storage. A friend of mine just build a 3950X, 128 gigs RAM, 4 TB SSD (2 NVME, 2 SATA.) The thing is a monster.
