It would be even higher if laptop manufacturers wouldn't gimp their laptops with amd cpus. Lenovo is well known to have almost no amd laptops available. There are some serious under-the-table deals with Intel I assume.
My last laptop purchase I wanted an AMD CPU as the integrated graphics is actually decent, unlike Intel integrated. That choice alone cut out 90% of laptop options. Which is wild considering how power efficient they are (which...is an incredibly desirable feature for a laptop you would think a laptop manufacturer would want to have).
Yeah but Intel name recognition is strong.
I have just bought ThinkPad, there is definitely more Intel variations but the T and P series often have at least one with AMD (and now I too have my first, my own, AMD cpu in house, even if a mobile one).
My Lenovo T14 Amd laptop is going strong. Just sucks that the 16gb ram isn't upgradable.
I bought the T14 also, gave it to my kid, it was a great computer he said. Much better then the Ideapads the rest of the class had.
Don't ever confuse Ideapads with Thinkpads. Thinkpads are the best!
Haha. Gimp.
Gnu Image Manipulation Program...duh
Ya that was the joke that flew over everyone’s heads.
My framework ryzen laptop has been super smooth for me.
It's nearly as powerful as my 5800X3D. And it's 15w (30w boost) vs 105w.
They're rarely the best option, but they're always the best choice.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
In addition to suspend/resume reliability improvements and suspend-to-idle (s2idle) enhancements, one of their engineers also discovered an easy one-liner as a small step to speeding up system resume time.
It's been a while since I last ran a X.Org vs. (X)Wayland Linux gaming comparison so today's article is a fresh look from Ubuntu 22.10 while moving to the very latest graphics drivers and newest Steam Play Experimental state.
There wasn't too much communication around the performance implications of mitigating Inception while over the past week I have begun benchmarking the software and microcode updates on Ryzen and EPYC processors.
With Sapphire Rapids there is reduced penalties from engaging AVX-512 -- and for some AVX-512 instructions, no longer any measurable impact -- compared to prior generation Xeon processors.
In this article is a look at the performance for a wide variety of workloads with AVX-512 on/off not just for Sapphire Rapids but also for prior generation Ice Lake as well as AMD's new EPYC 4th Gen "Genoa" processors where they have introduced AVX-512 for the first time.
The Radeon RX 7600 is a nice lower-end graphics card for 1080p gamers and has upstream open-source Linux support already -- including the ability to run out-of-the-box already on Ubuntu 23.04 and other newer distributions.
