Thanks for your answer

So, much better to have NPUs be made separately in different tiers, similar to what is done with GPUs rn.

Overall yea, but built-in graphics are remarkably efficient and they have the added benefit to be here even if you didn’t plan that use initially. I’m glad to be able to play video games on my laptop that was meant to be use for work only

Similarly, I had no interest in getting an NPU for this laptop but I found some use to it (well, when it’ll finally support what I want to do)

Manufacturers will never include a niche option, or will overprice it. Built in allows to get that directly
