MODERATORS
The whole point of this is to not have to buy a beefy notebook. You could connect a base anything and game. Most games bottleneck around the GPU, not CPU. In fact, most OSes leverage the GPU even for basic UI and desktop drawing.
And as others have said, it keeps the heat down so fans often don't have to spin up much.
It's a middle ground.
