I wish MS would set to unveil its vision for a not shitty high power Windows laptop for work, even the basics barely work: https://x.com/Jonathan_Blow/status/17

- JonChesterfield 2y agoDedicated nvidia GPUs in laptops have been a death sentence for decades. It used to be lead-free solder having poor fatigue properties combined with the GPU going through a lot of hot/cold cycles, probably combined with laptop cooling (with dust in the fins). Annoyingly the market for "very fast CPU with lots of ram and no GPU" seems to be too small to sell to, even before the current AI everywhere movement. Right now there are 16 core ryzen chips out there (e.g. the 7945HX) but I can't find a laptop with one that doesn't also have an nvidia chip burning a hole through the chassis. (the above probably holds for dedicated gpus by other vendors, though I can't remember ever seeing one in real life)
