Who is saying that ultrabook should not a dGPU? What I am saying that new ultrabook releasing in 2020 should have gpu which have new architecture, not the architecture released in 2016.

And who really cares? Those types of laptops are mainly for office working, not gaming nor video editing or similar. It's a specialized segment, you can buy ryzen laptops with 1650m for 600 if you want a cheap laptop with some gaming capability, but in ultrabooks the gaming capability is just an addon.

Would I want more modern gpus on ultrabooks? Sure I do, like I want a gt1030 refresh for my htpc, and I also want a house in the beach. But things cost money and time, and unless this 4 year old gpu gets really old to do their work properly, they are not renewing it. How many years have been intel and amd using the same igpus? Enough years to justify their retirement.

Well both Ice Lake, Comet Lake new iGPU that is not released in 4 years ago.

And still they suck balls compared to nvidia and amd counterparts, because they are done with a specific cost in mind for a specific consumer target.

And they have a CPU architecture from 2015. :rolleyes:

If they're going to charge "hey, this stuff is 4 year old" prices I couldn't be bothered to care.

It's a return to form actually. The low-end was always older tech. The bottom tier doesn't need the newest stuff, all it needs to do is play fortnite and netflix

Yes mobile was old tech but not that old, usu a generation behind on a newer node.

Pascal is a generation behind Turing.

When it makes it to market Ampere is should be out that puts it two generations behind not one.

Still irrelevant the fact is it does what it needs. MX has never been about gaming, it's about budget and better than integrated.

Not likely. The MX350 will likely start to make it out to market in a couple months. There is literally no re-tooling needed, since manufacturers already have laptops designed for the GTX1050. They just re-use those designed, and nVidia already has plenty of the cores laying around.

On the other hand Ampere is still just in the rumor phase. We'll probably see it towards the end of the year.
