Will there be laptop 20 series MXM Graphics Modules?

My budget only allows for me to get a RTX 2060 but seeing as these laptop 20 series may be far weaker than their desktop counterparts, getting a laptop now then saving for a RTX 2070/80 for a year to at least get same/slightly above desktop 2060.

Maybe wait for actual benchmarks before even thinking about such a risky and expensive strategy.

You can't upgrade graphics in most laptops for 3 reasons:

1. Most have soldered graphics chips and hence aren't upgradeable.
2. The cost of mobile graphics is prohibitive. An RTX2080 card is around £1500
3. It's not just a case of updating the graphics, there's also having to include a compatible BIOS to read the new graphics card. These can be very hard to find if at all.

The only chassis that PCS do with an MXM graphics is the Octane.
