Ok how does smart shift actually work? I understand that you get a performance boost but it's not clear how you use the dGPU?

15W is not good TDP, is too much for small fanless machine and not enough for workstation where are 35W/45W mosters and fan. Make it 5W, 8W and it would be fine. For something better there are still Intel + Nvidia combos.. a bit doubt how AMD + Nvidia combo will work, there is lot and infamous history of Nvidia Optimus switching and AMD would need something similar.

You want a laggy slow system? Go for it. We are talking about performance package. Intel+Nvidia is no match for ryzen babes as one package. Never were. I prefer great 15 watts instead of 5 snails.

Get one of those ryzen apu's in a 2-in-1 thin form factor laptop that flips to a touchscreen style device and just take over the market at this rate. Will upgrade my laptop to one of those for certain.
