Well, the 5700 hits near enough to 2070 performance that it'd be a really good GPU on all platforms if not for AMD's horrible Windows drivers kneecapping it's ability to handle much. Anyways, I was actually wondering something, does AMD handle dGPU for their Mac dGPUs, or does Apple produce & release the drivers?For that kind of chip, your demand can only be met if Apple offers a mobile workstation level laptop with thicker casing. I'd love to see that with equivalent of mobile 2080.

Well heck. I don't know. Only Apple knows, and given how they just updated the screen, I wouldn't bet it for next several years.
Either way, I'm a big fan of AMD. I was so happy when Ryzen came out. I upgraded my gaming computer from an Intel Core i7-7700K to an AMD Ryzen 3700X, and unfortunately? I suffered the unmitigated terror of AMD's handling of GPU drivers when I built a gaming rig in late 2015 with a PowerColor Radeon R9 390X and honestly won't ever be using AMD GPUs on my Windows gaming rig until they have several years of proven reliable driver updates. They just can't compete with how Nvidia handles drivers for their cards! It's like, yes, AMD GPUs are by far the cheapest option flat out, but that cost saving value is quickly diminished once you realize AMD has no idea WTF it's doing with it's Windows GPU drivers.
