I expect the GPU generates heat as well. Which is why all the interest in external enclosures.
This entire thread is baffling to me. Everyone rushing to justify buying a new high performance laptop which they don’t mind throttling because they never needed the performance in the first place??
- andromeduck 8y agoDoes the internal GPU generate enough heat to throttle under typical conditions? Having the option for external GPUs is a completely different story.
- imtringued 8y agoIf it's the 13 inch model with an iGPU only then yes. The CPU and GPU will share their total TDP.

Time scale is relevant. I want interactive tasks to be faster. I won't notice a 5% improvement in a job that takes long enough for a coffee break, but I will appreciate if more short tasks can cross the threshold of being indistinguishable from instantaneous.
- AstralStorm 8y agoWe're talking 100% improvement here. This could be reducing a render from an hour to 20 minutes, a qualitative difference.
