The main reasons why Apple downlocks its GPUs are of course power consumption and heat dissipation

If I&amp;#x27;m typing code for a minute and then spending few seconds compiling and launching it, it won&amp;#x27;t trigger throttling, but reducing each compilation from 3 seconds to 2 seconds is certainly a benefit.</text><parent_chain><item><author>wukerplank</author><text>In all fairness: If you sell a &amp;gt;3000€ laptop, people should expect to get the full value out of it.
