    Only argument I could make is that this is the first gpu module that has a self contained cooling system. Older mxm cards were just the PCB.

        Industry first Nvidia card with this setup? Like it’s a bit thin but that’s the closest I can get to “erm actually”

          hence why Mention the titles a bit sensationalist.

          its using a gpu company that rarely does it, for the first time in awhile in a very specific way, as that’s not the title of the thread that OP links.

          the idea of a laptop dgpu isnt new

          the idea of a removable laptop dgpu(mxm)

          the idea of a removable nvidia laptop dgpu isnt new(same as above, also asus rog flow attachable gpus)

          the idea of a slottable gpu isnt new (frameworks 7700s came before it)

          its the combination of the above which is pigeonholing the definition hard enough that it really doesnt have any real merit.
