Up to 95W on a mobile RTX 3080, on a model with choices from RTX 3060 to RTX 3080?

Unless there's a good use case where mere 8GB of VRAM just won't do...Check benchmarks, and caveat emptor.

There is nothing difficult slapping high end specs into a thin chassis. The real challenge is to keep them running at peak/ high performance, which every laptop maker falls flat. That's just because it is physically not possible to have an elaborate cooling in a very slim chassis. To me, adding more and more heatpipes for laptop cooling is not going to solve the problem. The key issue is, the heatsink(s) are too small and quickly becomes the bottleneck once you load the CPU, and/or, GPU.
