  The upcoming 16 inch model will have a dedicated gpu.

  Why would you want one in a laptop?

  They produce too much heat

    Plenty of laptops have dedicated GPUs, and framework is actually releasing one with a dedicated GPU.

    Why would you want a laptop that can do some CPU tasks but falls on its ass when doing GPU tasks? Seems ridiculous to buy a laptop capable of only doing half as many things. Integrated graphics are garbage.

        Your other comment is stupid, and this one is worse

    I’d imagine for graphics intensive tasks and they’ll have to be moving the device around?

      Then you would use an external gpu

        So every time you move say from home to school you’d have to bring an external device? What’s the point of that?

        Unless it’s one of those that has an oculink connection, you wouldn’t have enough bandwidth on the USB 4 port to be able to game on it at full speed

    I wouldn’t but my girlfriend does, despite me trying to explain to her why desktops are better.
