I have a P1 gen 4 and I'm looking to upgrade, but the gen 7 is kind of a downgrade in many ways over the gen 6. The GPU is capped at the 4070 while the gen 6 went up to the 4090 mobile. Overall it's a smaller footprint, and the cooling solution appears to be smaller so it's probably not going to perform as well as the outgoing model.

I'm also not necessarily looking forward to the aluminum chassis, and really don't like the notch. If it had Thunderbolt 5 I'd probably get it, but for now I'll hold off until gen 8? This 11th gen CPU is awful and I can't wait to get rid of it.
