Hello i’m searching for buy a laptop, i want to set a Linux OS but i didn’t chose yet if you want u can recommend SO also, but i want a rolling release one, what i want is a laptop to carry practically everywhere, my budget is 500€ but if i like it too much it could go up to 1100, I need minimun of 16GB because when i work i don’t close the tabs, once i’ve stacked up to 258, i would like a minimun of 512 gb of space, and i’ll use the laptop to programming (currently im studing programation), i would like also do my own thinks such a web server, stream server, minecraft server and maybe a casual game such minecraft CS2 or The Binding of Isaac. The keyboard is important ,for me atleast, the Lenovo keyboards i hate them, i like LG or Asus/Acer, all of these i would like to dont open/modify the base laptop, I dont like to open the pc. I know the budget is impossible to catch something with all that but these are orientative objectives, and as I said it can go up to 1100€, one i’ve seen and i liked very much is these https://frame.work/es/en/products/laptop-13-gen-amd/configuration/new the 1600€ but is so expensive for me, but i like it very much even the concept

    Framework laptop has a nice concept and good Linux support in theory.

    Sadly, I keep having heating problems with mine, currently in contact with their support again.

        Similar. 95-100 degrees C under load, while 70-85 (or something like that) is normal according to the support. It’s also very hot in idle (60-80). And when it gets hot, it throttles to unusable 400 MHz.

        Still in contact with support, I have warranty, so I’m hoping they get me new thermal paste or whatever is broken. It’s not a software thing.

          Thanks for the info! I’ll have to double check my temps, but last I saw I think they were around 50-70ish iirc so I guess maybe it’s ok. It still feels like something in there (I think it’s the batt) is getting hotter than that and I’m wondering if maybe something isn’t working right, I have to find my laser thermometer I guess.

            From hand feel, my battery doesn’t really get hot (opened it right after shutdown when it was 80 CPU temp)
