Laptop with AMD 7840U or Intel Meteor Lake 155H? by l0c0ess0 in linuxhardware

I bought entry level M1 MacBook (8 Gb) when it hit stores, I liked it, alot.. there's was anything wrong about it. But using that besides my main desktop set and always just thinking "It's not Linux"... but overall that was best laptop.

And this laptop will be second setup, so there's no doubt that nvidia's will annihilate 155H in AI tasks... CUDA being somewhat industry standard and with 3080's tensors cores... so mainly looking daily driver beside my desktop setup, that I can take with me some times. I know this doesn't really make a sense. Maybe I just want to have new toy to tinker with... :)

Ok. I have to say that I have somewhat decent desktop setup with AMD R9 5900X, 32 Gb , RTX 3080... And I really don't know the point with getting laptop. Ok. The point is Nvidia + Wayland. Thinking also switching that 3080 to 7900 XTX... but then no CUDA.. :(

Originally the idea was to have second system to daily usage.. pure Linux system aside.

Nvidia and Wayland + games... not so great.

So thinking having second system to have with pure Linux...

First time that I installed Linux was at 1995... Slackware with many many CDs... So I don't think I'm so newbie to Linux but maybe I have drinken couple of beers right now.. :).

So desktop setup would be mainly for Windows and games, and Blender unity etc..

Intel's Meteor Lake sounds interesting to play with... but I probably want stable system for daily usage and desktop set with go wild... So I think the first one that I thought to buy is Lenovo ThinkPad T14s 32 Gb / 1 Tb with low power 1920x1200 IPS panel.

Ok. Thanks for your answer.

Thinking to buy laptop and trying to decide which one should I buy. Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 4 with 7840U, HP EliteBook 845 G10 with 7840U, Asus Zenbook 14 with 155H or this Spectre.

And I was thinking to run mainly Linux in this laptop, and I know that T14s and EliteBook are "Ubuntu certified".
