How bad is folding for laptops?
Go to solution
Solved by Sauron,
I would think any laptop that supports thermal throttling of its components (which should be everything). A competently designed computer, even if inadequately cooled, will not damage itself with heat, because safetys should kick in and throttle it down to avoid damage.
Is that why 99% of laptops with a dedicated gpu die in 3-4 years because the soldering in and outside the gpu fails? Yeah, they SHOULD be able to prevent damage. But in reality pretty much no laptop can do so effectively under constant load, the only exception being the huge portable desktops with full gtx 980s in them.
