lol industry first? Swappable GTX models were already a thing 10+ years ago. Clevo/Sager chimes in…… “bitch, we did it before you”.

Nowhere in the press release and he claim to be an industry first on swappable mobile GPU, and the title imply that the "industry first" is to have a swappable RTX5070M, which may be correct, especially depending on your definition of "swappable".

That said, the cooling system is contained in the module. Afaik the mxm modules were just PCBs.

MXM has been around for 20+ years as far as I know.

I have a Sony vaio F series laptop from 2000 and it apparently has an mxm ATi Rage Mobility M1. So I can confirm that at least.
