What's the best laptop you can get for Linux? Best ram, CPU, video card?Can you do a laptop 4090 (i.e., a rebranded 4080) with two external GPU cases so you can have two real 4090s or 3090s?No room for a desktop system since I move in with different friends and family every month and a half but still want something beefy.
What is the ideal laptop model for the person who hates Steam, hates Valve, hates PC Gaming, hates Gabe Newell and wants the most anti-PC gamer laptop of all?
>>102358275Should I get a Legion Slim 5 Gen 9 /lg/? I'm looking for a Ryzen laptop with an 8gb gpu, 16" 120+ hz high srgb coverage screen and freesync for under $1500. Right now the 4070 model is $1200 and that seems like a good deal.

After getting tired of AMD copeposting I just got a Legion Pro 7i with a 4080 and hasn't regretted it one bit.

>>102358275I'm sorry but the Leigon line mogs so many laptops within it's price bracket and can be upgraded. I don't know why it doesn't get enough respect especially the Ryzen models.
anyone here with a framework 16? how is it and is the battery life at least serviceable?
>>102358275What's your opinion on strix point? I want to get an APU laptop to do some emulation. I know intel has arc but it seems arc still has a long way to go.
>>102360641I know someone who has a legion and he's complaining about fan noise and heat.

>>102363615Tell him to undervolt.
is it a dumb idea to buy a macbook m2 pro right now? is it too outdated? i'm stuck between an M2 pro and base M3 both with 16gb ram. the internet gives conflicting information and there's a lot of negative reporting around the base M3 since a lot of morons bought the 8gb version and complain
>>102365220I use my M1 macbook pro every day and it runs great.What are you planning to do on it? I use it for work (video editing) and it's never struggled.I don't really like the OS, but the hardware is very nice.
>>102365238indesign work mostly, illustrator too and some light photoshop work as wellno videos except for 2d text animation desu good to hear that the M1 still works so well
>>102365276I could do all of that easily on my M1, so you'll have no trouble on an M2.Being forced to not use 32 bit apps (without work arounds) sucks tho, unless you really know you won't use older software, I would't recommend a mac.I got this thing for free from work and I wish I asked for a windows laptop honestly.
>>102361089To be honest, I don't see the point of Frameworks when Thinkpads exist. Both are about as repaireable, have good Linux support, but Thinkpads have way better quality (especially the keyboard), firmware support/updates and are cheaper.
i own the acer swift 1, got one for an absolute steal, upgraded the memory but i cant upgrade the ram, sad that it lacks an ethernet port but i have an adapter, general thooughts on the more "minimalist" thinner laptops getting rid of some features?
>>102364112soldering on shit is ultra retarded
>>102365220Everything below the M3 Pro Pro is a trap option, and even the Pro chip isn't the best value proposition compared to the Max. Go M2 or wait for the inevitable refresh and reshuffling of tiers and prices come October. Macs are like flagship phones where you have to do the trade-in treadmill every 3 years to get the most value out of them. Bonus points if you can write them off on your taxes as an expense over those 3 years. It's one of the better freelance and small businesses write-offs because they hold value so well.
Which laptops are great for hackintosh? Any success storyI'm thinking with Dell latitude 7300. Small, yet without soldered stuffs.
>>102365987hackintosh means old intel, which means dogshit laptops
Need an upgrade from my Surface Pro 7. I've been so put off with it that I'm considering switching to a Macbook or Ipad or something as a replacement despite being a long time windows user. The main problems have been being slow as shit, low storage capacity, crashing on Zoom if I use virtual backgrounds, constant screen flickering, and dogshit battery life. Idk if I just got a lemon but I've had nothing but problems with this shitbox. I really just need something that can run and load VMWare quickly (mainly just for Epic), handle the virtual backgrounds on Zoom without literally crashing the whole computer, and last longer. Looks like the newer 11 series of the Surface are running around $1200, are they any better than the older models?

I always buy chromebooks, flash them with regular coreboot, then wipe chromeos and install Linux. You can get much better hardware for less money this way. For example, this thinkpad is only $499 right nowhttps://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadc/thinkpad-c14-chromebook-enterprise-14-inch-intel/len101t0022i716GBs RAM256 GBs SSDTouch displaylots of ports, a thunderbolt on each sideYou just have to open the case and disconnect the battery in order to flash the bios with real coreboot.

Been out of the market for ages. Best gaming/work(IT) laptop? It's gonna be a primary when not at home and secondary otherwise. Can go up to 3k USD but would prefer mid-high performance/price ratio without wasting dollars for incremental performance. Not partial to anything but Windows. Would like a large screen with high res.
