they should make a laptop that exposes two or three reinforced pcie x16 slots as ports. you get ridiculously high bandwidth which helps future proof the laptop
Where would those ports be? On the bottom?

Thunderbolt? Occulink?
>>110206268Market segmentation. It's all part of the cuckening anon. Once Risc v stops being for autists only, we people need to jump on it. It's the only way out.

>>110206268>that exposes two or three reinforced pcie x16 slots as ports.Na.... Don't need that in a laptop.You're already basically getting PCIe lanes exposed with Thunderbolt, and gigabytes of bandwidth available over it.
>>110207065>>110207085>Don't need it.Cuckbolt is not open because intel are jews. Going the thunderbolt route tends to overpriced and it's literally just more modular going the PCIe route.
>>110207157Isn't USB4 basically "Thunderbolt but open"?
>>110207157What are you going to use an x16 slot for on your laptop?Graphics cards don't even need the full 16 lanes to get full performance. LLMs can get by with just 2-4 lanes because the majority of the bandwidth is during loading the model into VRAM.Then the fastest SSDs only use 4 lanes. So what is the full 16 lanes there to accomplish?
>>110207157>>110207766Anything USB4/TB is expensive for the primary reason of fleecing mobile users.Has nothing to do with the inherent expense of thunderbolt or USB4 equipment.Companies just know mobile users are the more irrational buyers. Which says alot DESU
