I’ve seen stuff about Nvidia cards not working well with Linux, is that true?
If one was in the market for a new laptop anyway, would you recommend not getting nvidia and going with AMD?
I’m currently intrigued by the Lenovo LOQ line (full size numpad). Not buying anytime soon, just scoping out good brands and ideas.
*Primary role is laptop productivity, secondary role is maybe patient gaming, so I’m ok with budget gaming. Going Linux is not guaranteed, but maybe in the future because windows keeps getting more nuts. So I’m looking for info to make sure Linux is possible.
*I want this to last a long time, 10 years should be easy.
Good “budget” gaming laptops are still about $2000. If you buy a good used laptop and a low range gaming PC you pay the same but don’t have to lug around a 3kg laptop with loud fans and lots of heat output, bad battery life and next to no repairability, just to still have less FPS than a similarly priced PC+laptop combo.
