Why is it such a problem to make discrete cards less power hungry instead of powering them down and switching to internal GPU?

Why is it such a problem to make discrete cards less power hungry instead of powering them down and switching to internal GPU?
- neogodless 9y agoA simple metaphor would be like - why not make a Ford F350 get 35 mpg instead of owning a Fusion Hybrid for commuting during the week? Limits of physics and engineering. Will a reasonably powerful gaming card eventually draw the equivalent power of an integrated chip (when not gaming)? Probably. It seems like we're not there yet.
