What is the most important aspect of a high performance workstation?

This should have been a 240W unit at minimum. USB EPR does extend to that number so it is part of the PD spec. Losing 50W from the G2 is A LOT. Otherwise it looks beautiful, but I feel that performance - especially on the GPU side will take a major hit. Remember that the P1 G6 had 170W to the total system.

A clone of this, the T16g G3 can be expected at the end of the year with 5080/5090 class GPUs.

Doesn't seem significantly smaller or lighter than the Dell/HP equivalent and yet much lower power budget, this seems like a huge mis step.

Would be interesting to see what the cooling / TDP really are, the new Intel chips are more efficient but still around 100W seems to be the sweet spot unless you want to go crazy with fan noise. certainly not enough for High end graphics car, on pro max 18 they can draw 175W sustained, why claim support for high end components but under power them ?
