I want you to do something for me. Look at the power it takes when running Cyberpunk 2077 at ultra. It's around 19 watts. Then look at the average 890m laptop when running same game, it's around 60 watts (lunar lake does 45watts). Now look at a low power rtx 4050 laptop, that will take 60w alone just for the dgpu, not including CPU, ram and the rest of the other stuff. So total power on an rtx 4050 laptop will be much significantly higher.
While this GPU may not be the fastest, it is incredibly efficient and takes very little power. It kind of reminds me of switch 2 SoC vibes which only takes something like 8w except this has a much faster CPU.
What's somewhat odd, is if you look at the MBP w/ teh same M5 igpu, it seems to take much more wattage under same Cyberpunk test. Not sure what that could be about. Perhaps combination of spinning fans for cooling, high refresh 120 Hz miniled display, higher sustained clocks/wattage - or a combination of all of the above.
