    Hello all, I'm wondering if anyone can help direct me to some info or opinions on the difference b/t these 2 chips. I'm looking at the Eluktronics MAX-15 11800H setups and I'm a bit worried about throttling issues if I go for the 3080. I'm not 100%sure which TongFang chassis the MAX-15 is or which XMG model is similar so I've had a hard time finding info on the Tiger Lake config performances here. Everyone is either benchmarking the prometheus, mech, or 17" version (sorry I don't recall the model #s or names from other companies).

    I'd like to go top of the line since I've come into some extra spending money but I can't help but worry that the 3080 will never spread it's wings in such a small system, which would be rather a disappointment since it's an extra $700 from Eluktronics' web store (buying direct since they apply liquid metal). It's also not clear what the base TDP is on these configs, Eluktronics has only told me the combined TGP numbers.
