- zeusk 7y agoNo, that only means it can't be charged will on burst load (turbo boost). Intel's chips can consume > 200% of their TDP during all-core turbo.
- leetcrew 7y agothe case where the laptop draws more power than the AC adapter can provide is probably some sort of brief turbo state for the cpu and/or gpu. it can't maintain this for long without overheating.
- ben-schaaf 7y agoFrom what I've seen, none of the high end Mac book pros have a good enough charger to provide enough power for a mixed CPU/GPU workload. And with the switch to USB-C and it's 100W power limit they can't even fix it now.
