Title: Lenovo ThinkPad E490 Office Laptop in review: The Radeon GPU is too much for the cooling solution
Post by: Redaktion on May 20, 2020, 00:52:30

everything is going according to plan. amd renoir should prove itself fast enough to be in top-tier laptops, vega 14nm has already proven itself hot enough to be in 1000+ usd laptops.
you guys have no idea how business works.

If only they put exhaust hole to Sideway instead of directly to hinge like they use to, user have room for additional vacuum cooler that reduce heat up to 15°C (in theory) so long they don't mind with noise.
