I have an AMD Framework 13 and I cannot recommend it enough. IMO there's no other laptop worth considering unless you specifically need a Mac. They fully support Ubuntu, have excellent configuration options, and are powerful enough to run small local LLMs well (Qwen 2.4 14B runs about 6 tk/s and Llama 3.2 3B at about 12 tk/s on the iGPU via Vulkan).
This laptop has been everything I wanted it to be and I look forward to upgrading it for many years to come.
- aapoalas 2y agoI just got the AMD FW13 a few months ago, and I've enjoyed it very much as well. It's very much powerful enough for casual Rust programming, and it looks and feels great.
- authorfly 2y agoHow are you using the GPU on the AMD 13? Is it GPT4All with Vulkan or something? I have struggled to get the GPU detected/used.
- jckahn 2y agoI use https://jan.ai/ https://jan.ai/, which supports GPU acceleration via Vulkan.
