Is the Lemur better or Framework 13 a better fit for gaming?

I’m not triple a gaming, but playing up to like, Skyrim would be nice.

EDIT: Thanks for the replies everyone! I read them all and upvoted you all because they were truly helpful.

Looks like FW is the clear winner! I also use GIS software for work stuff/self teaching and so graphics capabilities are pretty important for me.

Thanks again everyone, y’all are the best!

Previous System76 owner here - Switched to Framework for my second laptop. Yes, System76 contributes upstream to Linux, but Framework is just better. My System76 needed a fan replaced and it was lowkey annoying - Paid over 150$ to have it done; such an upgrade is much easier on the Framework (not to mention the customization lets you get exactly what you need and pay for nothing more)

Same tbh. Framework just works. And they do contribute back, just perhaps not as much specifically to Linux. Open source hardware is so incredibly valuable and important and rare. Honestly, if I had to choose only based on how much is contributed back, I'd still pick Framework.
