Can anyone comment on the FW13 AMD gaming performance (and thermal throttling) (alien.top)

Just wondering how it manages thermals. I know this gen AMD is really great for graphics, but I know thermals also plays a big role.

Right now im on a X1 carbon with 1165g7, and it supposed has pretty good graphics for intel. But even if im getting 100fps ill get dips down to 2fps at times because it starts to throttle.

So while the CPU and igpu are good enough for me on paper, the performance really isnt.

I dont game a ton on it, but its nice to have for the random esports title every so often (so i wish it was better).

So how is FW? And is there a big difference between the 7640U and 7840U?

Thanks.

Those panels you linked are all 60hz I believe

oops, yea on second look they all are 60hz, except for a few which dont list it (so im assuming 60hz).

Maybe Ill eventually just get a FW16 instead.
