I'm running the 5300M, that might explain why.
I can imagine that when it came to configure the machine the decision was `Put more RAM in it, he's a web-dev, doesn't need a fancy graphic's card!`
Which I don't as I'm not going to gaming on my work PC, but if that 15W is pushing it above the thermal limits of the chassis, then that would have been a decent upgrade.
I'd prefer it without a heavy-lifting graphics card in that case, but that doesn't seem to be an option.
