Released over a decade ago, the Mali-450 operates on the legacy . Utgard utilizes a split-pipeline mechanism, meaning it features dedicated vertex processors and separate fragment processors. Because these pipelines cannot share workloads dynamically, the GPU often leaves core components idle while overloading others, resulting in high heat generation and inefficient energy consumption. The Mali-G31 MP2 Bifrost Architecture

If we define "hot" as highly active or competitive , the story flips.
