True. I remember like 10+ years ago people were ranting because their Dell laptops had worse performance than expected. Turned out Dell throttled if temperatures went above 75°C or so. I'm pretty sure it's the same reason yet again. Looks like nothing has changed...

I also remember back then people tried all kinds of tricks with cooling pads etc. to keep it cooler. Some were partially successful. But considering the work required after purchase, possibly risking warranty... *shaking my head*

LunarLake and PanterLake are laptop architectures, totally different in their construction and now Intel changes everything again after seeing the disaster in sales and performance. What is currently LunarLake is shortened in its memory to only 32GB while in AMD laptops you can have up to 64. It was a big mistake on Intel's part since the Ai pulls and needs a lot of RAM to run correctly. Intel again changes everything but with 18A which may be its salvation since it has an 8 month advantage over TSMC. We will see the results at the end because AMD Ryzen AI Max.+ 395 will have 16 cores/32 threads and 40 GPU computing units that will be released in January 2025. It is a real Beast that performs twice as well and with lower consumption than the current Intel ones, something essential when buying a laptop.

It's Dell, of course it's going to throttle.
