A few weeks ago at CES NVIDIA announced several laptop solutions with RTX GPUs, both normal and Max-Q versions. At that time the company, however, did not release clock frequencies for the Max-Q RTX... Nvidia publishes clock rates for RTX Max-Q solutions
Those clocks have been there since day 1, they're not new and they don't specify they're Max-Q version clocks but just laptop versions which only some are Max-Q models
Am i to understand that there are going to be non max-q 2080 and 2070 mobile graphics, with boost clocks of 1590 and 1440 MHz ?
If someone decides to push them that high with good enough cooling, it's possible. Think of desktop-replacement machines you need a forklift to move.
So the usual story with laptop graphics...despite the naming, performance will be: Mobile 2080 = Desktop 2070 Mobile 2070 = Desktop 2060 ..etc,etc.
