Interested in computer/laptop efficiency?

Fan of https://socpk.com/laptopgpucurve/ I suppose (z axis for price?)
"one less thing to charge. It's annoying to need extra cables when traveling"

Why not use some standard charging like USB-C or Qi?

IK you said easier/cheaper to use the Pebble and hope 30 days makes it a non-issue...but if you lose/break charger or pins on the watch itself you have no alternative

If it is too impractical to have a USB C port on the watch itself, could it support standard Qi charging in addition to whatever proprietary charging method?

Very annoying how each wearable has its own proprietary charger

Is it possible to get some kinda solar epaper screen similar to the solar MIPS found in the Garmin solar watches?

And there's the Galax 1070 Katana.

It's apparently loud and hot, but it also takes 50% less space (for the TDP) than even the slightly larger variants of these

i.e. you could power limit 25%-30% and still have better "TDP per Liter" than them

Not to mention undervolting on newer cards does that

Some other 180W-200W single fan <200mm cards, the Gigabyte is the 1080 and the Zephyr is the single 4070 model available like this

despite there being single fan 180W-200W 1080, 2070, 3060Ti, and 5700 (but nothing for 6650 / 7600 from AMD e.g.)

I know you're an overclocking channel but I really wish they had smaller coolers

4070Ti Super had these 2 coolers that they could've just reused?

We had 250W 1080Ti mini in 2017, we should get better (more "space-efficient"/dense) cooler design after 8yrs not worse

Thank you for the source!

Is this your table/spreadsheet?

How is Strix Halo $1200+? Are you considering the 380 SKU?

AFAIK only thing with pricing is the Flow Z13 at $2k, but without Asus/premium tax and lower SKU it could be lower sure. And then even lower if it's not a laptop

I think this is pretty close, but you're paying for the efficiency/ CPU cores over the PS5 (premium for taking half the power)

The tablet goes to 80W with their normal power limits/"profiles", maybe more manually.

I've seen FW13s than can (momentarily?) cool 60W, so maybe with an upgraded heatsink it is totally possible.

But performance will take a cut if they continue with DDR5-5600 SODIMM?

I am curious to see pricing/performance of the 380/8040S (6 core, 16CU) variant

Or with the 8c/32CU variant along with subtracting Asus tax from $2k would get pricing down, don't know if it's enough

It seems kinda bad (though there is some Asus/premium tax here) considering desktop isn't much more efficient (or even worse in some cases), the $2k 5070s will have to be <$1500 to compete, so I think taking $500 off these prices is..."fair" to assume
