What worries me a bit is that I’ve seen quite a few people mention thermal throttling, high temperatures, and occasional freezes or lag that make the Precision 5560 feel slow under load. I also read that it uses a MUX-less design, meaning the NVIDIA GPU runs through the Intel one, which might cause
