Are Ryzen cpu better compared to Intel when it comes to Linux? I am thinking of getting a new laptop and need some advice. Either I am going with Ryzen 4000 or Intel 10th gen.

    I have a Ryzen 7 1700X at home and a similar one at work for our build servers. Unfortunately the 1st gen Ryzen suffered an annoying bug where gcc would segfault under heavy compilation loads (had to disable SMT in the bios as a workaround) but other than that the performance has been great.

    My laptop is a mobile Ryzen5 2650 I think. Pretty pleased with it’s performance and the built in vega GPU means I can even do some games on the road.
