(I'm not even comparing technologies)
I actually tried running RimWorld on the laptop.
It ran.
And the fan was unhappy.
A GT1030 is around what... 100 USD at most ?
(T530)
>x200
Can't hear you over the backlight dying
siemens nx and solidworks usecase
@kontroll I tried overwatch on my Latty and got 720p60 with some drops to like 40, lowest settings
Not bad for a 7w CPU that's passively cooled
Psst, btw, @Tervy... my laptop was €200 and my desktop cost €500. ;)))))))
Yeah well
I'm not saying it's a bad thing in your very specific case
psst my work laptop costed sub 1000 and this homepc... i dont even want to know so far
But most people don't do pro 3D
I also have a pro GPU because I'm using 3DExperience
How long before those laptops thermal throttle though? 😉
indeed most people need something to hide from view, lightweight, what plays netflix when they are not at home smart tv
it is shit for gaming indeed
it's shit for pro apps too
And *most* people that buy a laptop with a discreet GPU are gonna do that for gayming
@Droidbot Hol up. What CPU is that you got a playable Overwatch on?
And I think we are mainly targetting those
*Still* you could probably have a decent desktop setup for cheaper even with a Quadro/Firepro
Better than my i7-whatever. <:iosthink:328535776843268105>
literally quadro k2200 would go toe to toe with that meme of a GPU and it's like $150
yeah most likely getting cheaper model used elitebook or thinkpad would still be able to do those fixes
and play average joe games
According to the first benchmark I found.
and that's only because SNX wants its meme double precision
most pro apps don't even use it
indeed
but snx is a workload where if you're paying for it, you can afford to buy a top of the line machine
if I remember correctly it's like 10k USD a year
it is :D
just included that there as comparison not as actual usecase for such shitty laptop :D
but yeah my point still is there is usecases for many average joes where laptop just suits them better (gaming model or not) than desktop
