I think that swappable GPUs are the killer feature. A 7 year old CPU is fine, a 7 year old GPU not so much.
Seven years is a bit harsh, but upgrading the gpu once in 3-4 years would have saved you money and electronic waste.
I’m still running a PC from 2012. It’s seriously fine, I only started feeling it last year. Looking to upgrade next month.
Still remains to be seen how cost effectively the actual upgrade can be done.
Replacement/ upgrade GPUs are not a new thing and have failed to take off in the past.
MXM was the name of the form factor… Info for the curious… https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_PCI_Express_Module
