    KDE runs bad on NVidia GPUs - slower animations, bugs and glitches.
    I’ve been running Plasma on my Titan RTX for the past two years without any issue. Maybe if I use wayland I’d run into those problems. Solus/openSUSE Tumbleweed with Plasma have been fantastic using a Nvidia GPU.

    Why would there be? this is their target:

    Customers include ML scientists, developers, and creators.
    RDNA is terrible for ML, that is a gaming architecture and I don’t see any mention of gaming on that laptop. Looks like a much better option than the overpriced Tensorbook from Razer.

    Intel i7-11800H (8 cores, 2.30 GHz), 64 GB Memory, 2 x 1 TB, NVMe SSD, Data Science & Machine Learning Optimized. TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras Pre-Installed. Fast shipping.


    When we look at processes the 12700H outperforms its 6800H competitor. There isn’t a V-Cache mobile chip either.

    Oh wow. If you want to get the worst linux experience just buy dual-GPU Nvidia laptop with snap-crap. Should also add GNOME de to the list, but since we have kubuntu here at least DE is nice.

    And again with Nvidia garbage?
    What's next, hearing that they have put Kubuntu 22.04 with all the Snap crapware on it that makes everything slow?

    That being said it looks like very fine laptop by specs and price.
