I was looking for a new Laptop for my personal use. I shortlisted Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 with AMD's Ryzen 9 AI 365. Then I was searching around and found they released a new lineup of Ryzen 9000 series just a month after the AI 300 series's launch.

I am confused here. So confused that I am debating whether to buy a processor with AI jargon in its name.

Will there be good Linux support for this NPU enabled laptops or should I go ahead and buy a ThinkPad P14s with Ryzen 8840HS inside. Both are about similar in price and only thing that keeps me from buying its 60Hz panel (No OLED 120Hz display where I live).

I use Gnome on EndeavourOS.

to play devils advocate, its good for people who understand the numbers its terrible for people who ungabunga big number da better.

its on a similar boat to how acer names its monitors (the letter nonsense on a acer monitor tells you what features it has without having to read the spec sheet e.g the I's in the name represent how many HDMI ports it has)
