To put it in simple words, desktop GPUs will always be superior to their mobile counterparts. The RTX 4070 in this will be equivalent to a desktop RTX 4060 Ti or 4060. The desktop GPUs also have more VRAM than their mobile counterparts, for example 8GB in this vs 8-12GB in a desktop.

EDIT: Never mind, google searching answered my question. Looks like 4070 laptop is 31% slower than the 4070 desktop (with a much lower power draw as well obviously).
REALLY dumb question here.
What is the difference between this RTX4070 and a 4070 that is in a desktop case. The second is obviously much larger.
I ask because I'm currently having to warranty return a desktop with a 4070 in it - which itself replaced my old Dell G7 laptop. Considering returning to a laptop after the warranty mess is taken care of.

wait for now. time is due for 14th gen or core ultra 1 with 4070 for the same price. Its not a big difference with performance, but the core ultra 1 or ultra 2 are less power hungry and efficient for same performance/battery usage

So the Ultras, what's the deal with them? Slightly (just barely) less powerful than non-ultra of the same number, but using far less power, like 45W vs 145W?

if you get for the same price, it is more efficient being on 7nm and better internal graphics performance as well.
Mostly its more recent release + better battery life. Performance per watt is better on core ultra

4070 is a better card, if that's what you need.
