I don't need a laptop right now since I have a recent nvidia 3060 model, but I will probably be switching to framework after this one is no longer keeping up.
I hope they keep going up, and by the time I need a new gaming laptop again in 5+ years time they have them. Currently not really an option for me sadly, but maybe one day
I haven’t followed their activities re/ beginning to also use Ryzen chips (or at all, to be honest) recently, but I am very glad they seem to be doing well & able to produce/ship another compelling product!
Their core ideas have sounded compelling to me from the start.
It should be fully compatible, right? Ryzen 7 doesn't require a specific driver for Linux, it's supported by the Linux kernel. I think the only issue would be a specific driver for the GPU.
If you stick with Ubuntu LTS or Fedora you should have full support out of the box
[...] or the DIY Edition that you can configure more deeply, assemble yourself, and bring your preferred OS, including Linux. AMD has a strong focus on Linux drivers, and we provide in-house support and guides for Ubuntu LTS and Fedora.
Was considering getting one early next year and so just waiting a bit before ordering one. Seeing how fast they are selling out, this might actually be quite tough, haha ^^
