Did you check what they were saying about the M1 Max? It is comparable to the fastest GPU in a notebook they could find while using 100w less energy. We have to wait for the reviews next week what it actually means though.

Also you can't compare GPUs _exactly_ since apple ignoring everything except their own Metal thing

If you care about GPU performance, you don't care about 100W of power.

If someone is buying a laptop they are typically going to care about what 100W savings means in a laptop: less heat and noise, longer battery life or less weight, longer component life, ...

Regardless of whether GPU speed is a top priority or not.

You can't really trust Apple's claims on GPU performances though, we'll have to see how that really pans out on actual benches.
