Just got my 13 with the 7840 and I’m realizing that even the integrated GPU is more powerful than the one in my old PC, which has an i7 4790k and a GTX 970.

Is there any reason I shouldn’t just sell that relic and just run the Framework docked at home? I lose a little desk space, but I’m failing to see why I should keep using this desktop.

    For gaming you might face thermal throttling sooner on a laptop. That highly depends on what games you play. However, for testing, you should use it for a longer session and monitor thermals and clockspeed.
