I would not even consider it if it was 8GB, but this one is 16GB with 512gb of storage. It is a decent deal for what it is, and I've been looking for a decently powerful arm machine for awhile.

I do not like Apple as a company and would never buy direct. This one is second-hand and much cheaper than a framework. I would definitely buy a framework if that was an option.

Are AMD laptop discrete gpus good in linux?

I got an all amd msi laptop with ryzen 7 5800h and rx6700m a few month ago, and it's been great. Wayland compatibility was ridiculously good compared to the nvidia 3060 desktop I had previously, not to mention no fear of a completely black screen on update. If I had to complain about something it would be no real cuda support, and I still cannot get my llm working with rocm.

Is there a way to stop gnome from using dGPU?

Reply in thread

Thank you for your answer. It does not matter if it is X11 or wayland, both have the issue. I have tried to upload an image of nvtop (I think it was done correctly?) and it seems like a mullvad service is using the dgpu for some unknown reason. I have no clue why it is doing this, as it does not on KDE. I do not know how I would force this to use integrated so any help would be appreciated.
