> chip that doesn't overheat and is as performant

Does it have to be Intel, or would you consider AMD?

Yes, if you look back even just to Zen / Zen+ laptop chips, they were not impressive, but Zen 2 and newer based chips (Ryzen 4000 or higher) are performant, efficient, and do not overheat. There are some crazy 7045HX chips that are basically desktop chips that you wouldn't want in your laptop, but the 7040HS line is exactly what you were waiting for (as well as the 6000U and 6000HS line). Unless you need Intel over AMD for some reason?

This is helpful, thank you. I prefer Intel due to personal biases, but I will research AMD.
