I know that the USP of pop OS is that it is a linux distro with good integration with nvidia gpus and drivers but is it the reason that the laptop lineup has no options with an AMD dGPU. Or is it a framework like situation where your company is too small to get the attention of AMD.
Edit : Please don’t take it as a slight towards system76. What I meant to say was that amd does not have the revenue of Intel or Nvidia and so they only partner with big OEMs
There’s a general lack in availability to purchase boards with this configuration from manufacturers. Intel/NVIDIA and even AMD/NVIDIA hybrid systems are more readily accessible. Systems with NVIDIA graphics are also popular in part due to how many in the tech field require CUDA. At the time of this post, you can purchase a Pangolin which features a Ryzen 6800U with integrated AMD graphics though. Which provides decent graphics performance and battery life.
System76 does have the attention of Intel, and our firmware team works with them on open source firmware project. I believe some may even be using System76 laptops for their open firmware development. I’m hopeful that things will get better on the AMD side with openSIL because it’d be great to offer AMD systems with open firmware, rather than that being an Intel-exclusive feature.
