Laptops are not designed for demanding game, especially open world one.

Plus Dragon age is already bad optimised on full pc tower.

That is kind of bullshit these days. There are plenty of mobile gpus that run games fine because of advancements in mobile technology in general. That includes his GPU, which is comparable in power to the PS4's.

His CPU is overkill (although maybe not for Dragon Age, which seems to only run well on i7's.) 

You know pc gaming isn't just about cpu and gpu. It's also about temperature. How do you eliminate overheat for demanding game without burning some composant ? How do you evacuate the heat on a laptop ?

Laptop are not designed for it.

Well yeah, laptops run hotter but any gaming laptop will be running at low enough temps to play games on. Nobody will buy a laptop that is consistently throttling. If it isn't throttling then performance won't be affected. 

Looking at reviews for the OP's laptop it runs plenty cool enough to game on with no performance losses. Like I said, chip designs for mobile gaming in generally have been using much less power/performance which means much less heat (heat is proportional to power.)

The green one is his GPU (not overclocked.) It consistently stays under 60c at max load

Yep it seems but still, can't believe a laptop is a good thing for pc. Unless you double the price you would have paid for a desktop one.

Plus, it's not precised for a long they tested it ? You rarely play one hour but 2 to 4 hours. And since laptop pieces are all very close alltogether I'm sure the heat raise a lot while playing for more than one hour.
