When 2080 is undervolted+underclocked to in shape 1650-s performance?

GPU-s mentioned are just an illustration but can be anything as long as one has more cores of anykind/ higher memory bandwith that can be capped.

I have been wondering about heat output of mobile GPU-s. Most laptops seem to be performance limited by cooling. So today I found myself wondering how to get the most performance out of such a system. And if you constantly run the thing at 80-90 degrees gaming that cant be too good if u want to keep the thing for a while.

So I have been thinking of getting a new laptop and I started to wonder if I should get one that has top of the line GPU in it even if the laptop cant run it at 100%.

Given 2 identical laptops. One has lets say 1650 in it and the other has 2080.

Shader Processing Units= 896 vs 2944

Texture Mapping Units= 56 vs 184

Render Output Units= 32 vs 64

So for the same performance you can undervolt+underclock the GPU a lot more and in total should generate much less heat.

Now what I have been trying to figure out if that is even true and if it is then how much is the differnace.
