!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! Might be troubling but at least I’m still getting years out of my 980M at some slight OC settings.

To be honest the M series is just a really big compromise they perform like desktop cards that are 2~3 generations older and they also rarely are able to run full load for long since they thermal throttle a lot. I have a feeling they have something else up their sleeves though since they do have quite a decent market share for laptops. Like the article alluded to, fully fledged desktop cards make more sense and it streamlines their products.

Well, a 980M is basically a desktop 970, IIRC.

So, if the 1070 for Notebooks fits into 100 W TDP, that’ll be what a 1080M would’ve been.

I can’t read nVidia without the tone of the “Nativia” jingle

External GPU

This is actually pretty great. Mobile GPUs won’t be gimped versions of their desktop counterparts anymore. Now you can get the same high-end performance you’d get out of a full gaming rig in a device you can take anywhere.

Pretty much. Though the question remains; will they still offer said GPUs in an MXM format or are people forced to buy a completely new laptop as a result?
