How long can the laptop VRAM last operating under high temperature?

No - I'm just a formally trained and certified electronics technician with a computer repair business and a very long time forum helper with, "Heat is the bane of all electronics!" in my sig for a very good reason.

And yes, it is all about the Laws of Physics.

I note once again,

Cleary, you are right and everyone else is wrong so I see no point in discussing this further. It is not helping the OP.

I don't actually believe that any of the 4 people that said laptops are not for gaming have used a modern one. Especially when all of them have desktops weaker than my laptop showing on their profile specs.

Laptops were once upon a time very bad for gaming. I had a laptop with a 960M about 8 years ago. It provided a very compromised experience. That is a GPU from 2015.

It played Fallout 4 at about 25 fps at 1080P Ultra, COD: Black Ops 3 at 28 fps, MGS V at 37 fps, Mad Max at 45 fps, Arkham Knight at 21 fps, etc. Those are all games from 2015.

ie. At the time a xx60M GPU struggled to play games that came out the same year it did, at 1080P Ultra, often resulting in a sub-30 fps experience.

That isn't the case anymore, at all. My GPU is a 4090 Mobile, so I won't compare it to a 960M, since that's more than just a generational leap, that's also several steps up within the generation.

But a 4060 Mobile, which IS the equivalent to a 960M does not perform anything like the 960M did in todays games.

These are 1080P Ultra results for a 4060 Mobile, in modern games.

Diablo 4: 166 fps
Jedi Survivor: 62 fps
Dead Island 2: 154 fps
The Last Of Us: 49 fps
Resident Evil 4 Remake: 62 fps
Company of Heroes 3: 116 fps
Sons of The Forest: 65 fps
Atomic Heart: 58 fps
Returnal: 66 fps

For the most part modern "Gaming laptops", even low end ones, play games significantly better than they did in the past. Most of the people bashing them used one long before more recent innovations in both cooling methodology (vapor chambers, phase changing thermal pads, etc.), and vastly improved power efficiency.

And the high end ones don't just provide adequate gaming experiences, they provide exceptional gaming experiences.

Same games listed before as the 4060, but this time on my laptop with a 4090 Mobile:

Diablo 4: 334 fps
Jedi Survivor: 116 fps
Dead Island 2: 194 fps
The Last Of Us: 99 fps
Resident Evil 4 Remake: 140 fps
Company of Heroes 3: 225 fps
Sons of The Forest: 90 fps
Atomic Heart: 144 fps
Returnal: 147 fps

The days of settling for 30ish fps on midrange laptops, and 60ish on high end ones, are long gone. There are more games I can play at 4k/100+ fps than there are ones I can't play at 1080P/100+. The ones I can't play at 100+ fps just tend to be notoriously poorly optimized games that run poorly on desktops as well.
