I want to buy a laptop for a few purposes, not my main laptop:
-
Use it to run !localllama@sh.itjust.works stuff and Stable Diffusion.
-
Use it for games downloaded from repack sites. So for these two, it would need a decent GPU.
-
I would like to pull out the WiFi card. I have offline computers and online computers. No need for this to use the internet.
-
I would probably dual-boot Windows and Linux, or else have it boot Windows and use a live USB when I want Linux
Thank you all.
Money is no object.
It looks like Framework only offers entry-level Radeon GPUs.
If you want to do GPU compute in a laptop and money is no object, something from Lenovo’s Legion series of gaming laptops is probably a good choice. You can get one with an RTX 4090 in it, and the series (or many models of it, at least) appears to have reasonably good Linux support. (Disclaimer: I’ve never used one.)

Linux user for over 7 years, NixOS user for 2 years. Currently using HP Zbook 15 G3.
Can confirm, Nvidia experience in linux environment is S#!T in today’s standards.
Random crashes everywhere! Everytime I do serious stuff (which is most of the time) I disable discrete graphics on BIOS Setup.
Back to you Raedon and Iris XE Graphics
