Anyway I'm getting the System76 Laptop. I got one with Intel Iris Xe GPU because apparently the AMD Ryzen 7 5700U Vega 8 GPU is actually worse by a small margin. And Intel drivers are better across the board.

@Moon Yeah. Next time I'm getting a laptop that has Linux out of the box. I'm tired of buying Windows laptops and have some weird bug after installing a Linux distro.

@top @xianc78 I decided to not get a frame.work after a friend had multiple problems with Linux in it. Possibly solvable, but I want something that just works.

@top @Moon It looks like they refurbished a MacBook and resold it under a different brand.

@allison sounds like it has the same GPU, but maybe it's clocked different or something.

@Moon@shitposter.club Yeah that's what I would guess. It's kind of a moot point for me anyway since there's no way I could justify using Intel anything in a desktop build right now except their Ethernet and wireless

@allison It sucks how much desktop GPUs cost, but I wouldn't run Intel either.

@Moon @xianc78 Really? I thought they sold one that comes with Linux.

@top @xianc78 I thought so too but apparently you're forced to use Wayland and many apps either work wrong or not at all.

@Moon@shitposter.club I just went the APU route since I actually don't need much besides the ability to cleanly drive a 144hz display

@allison I got a new used gpu for my desktop because my old cards dropped the frame rate to like 15fps when I turned on OBS

@Moon @top @xianc78 I like the concept of framework but it's just alpha status right now it seems

@Moon @allison if it's the same as this 5600G thing then works really well

@shmibs @allison I found a direct comparison between the two GPUs and they were close to the same so I'm probably OK either way. the Intel is a couple years newer and probably has the best drivers since Intel makes them completely free then puts them into Linux kernel themselves

@Moon @allison i'm kinda dumb this stuff, but radeon driver is open, isn't it? didn't install anything new; already had mesa for old intel graphics, and all works perfectlydon't do the videogames so not sure, but tested with like emulating ps2/gamecube stuff when it showed up because was curious, and all worked that

@shmibs@tomo.airen-no-jikken.icu @Moon@shitposter.club Yeah, it's all mainlined open stuff nowadays. AMDGPU for newer cards and radeon for older cards. Literally no reason to use catalyst/fglrx unless you have old cards and you're a glutton for punishment (as for AMDGPU-PRO, it can safely be ignored for most stuff)t. absolutely no issues with AMDGPU on any of the machines I've used it with (RX580 on my old desktop, 4750U on my laptop, 5700G Vega 8 on my current desktop)

@allison @shmibs yeah as far as I know they are both in-tree fully open kernel drivers, just basically Intel ones are supposed to be "absolutely totally gonna work" but the gap is closing I guess.

@Moon@shitposter.club @shmibs@tomo.airen-no-jikken.icu I'd say 95/100 the gap is closed. In fact, I have to pity those using AMD cards on Windows now, since our drivers have long since eclipsed theirs
