As far as I know, the GeForce FX5200 mobile currently used exists in a 128 MB configuration, and somehow I doubt that additional RAM would increase heat. Naturally, a higher-clocked chip certainly would (unless more efficient). I really think this is more a question of margin.

(Then again, I hear all the time that 12-inch PowerBooks get seriously hot, so maybe heat is in fact an issue keeping Apple from doing upgrades?)
