biggest mistake was buying an amd laptop. this thing had gpu crashes from day one, and it got worse as time went on. now just playing a video and closing the lid will crash the kernel 100% of the time. amd - never again

Without further info that’s a lot to pin on the bottom layer of the stack. I have an Asus ProArt Ryzen AI HX 390 with 64GB RAM. Running CachyOS and Pop! the thing kept falling over at random times. Running Fedora workstation, it’s rock solid. YMMV.

Same, I have an all AMD framework laptop 16 with the gaming GPU, and running fedora, and it has been rock solid. I really couldn't ask for more

Just to add another data point, my AMD laptop was as the poster above described, unreliable drivers, glitches and crashes.

Personally I’ll never buy AMD again.

eh, i gotta system76 pangolin with all amd and it's been solid
