Posted October 24, 2022 I need a laptop WITHOUT igpu bottleneck due to proprietary software I'm using. Nvidia and and have really fucked the market up with this absolutely absurd power limit and Optimus shit. I've been looking at this for a week and I still can't find what I'm looking for. Between manufacturers not posting specs and Amazon listings giving you a grab bag of 2020/2021 results in place of 2022 models I can't find what I need. Maybe you guys can help. I need a 1080p 3060/3050ti laptop that can completely disable igpu to both the internal and external display over HDMI for 800-1500 usd. That's it. I can upgrade ram and HDD on my own so that's a non issue. I don't care about display hz or color or battery life anything like that though of course in a final hair splitter I prefer better response time to high refresh rate or color but would like to hit at least 100% srgb in an ideal world.

The 3060 16" version has a very good looking tgp. Maybe this is the one. Io is garbage but I don't mind using a hub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I specifically mentioned my 3070 model since I don't know if the lower models have that feature. Did you check?
