My GTX 970 has always worked on Linux Mint, even when it was only a year old
Dell's XPS laptops have been great, as well!
I mean really, fuck Microsoft and Windows!
Looking it up, there's a discussion on Framework's Discourse, but nothing shipping yet.
The best hope at the moment is to buy and connect an LTE M.2 key card that connects over USB-A, which would work on any laptop, come to think of it.
Hold up, there are third-party SIM card expansions‽
I don't have a Framework laptop (yet) but once I've got the money together I really want one!
we dont have the K, just the regular
Ah, my bad (^^;
I ran an i7-4790K in my gaming PC for a long time, as far as games go this 10-year old CPU still hold up well, never had to upgrade it surprisingly enough!
Still, a 4 GHz quad-core with hyper-threading, and about 8 GiB of RAM, is more than enough to run Windows 10.
Assuming these are for studying, the heavier workloads would consist of MS Word, Powerpoint and an instructional video in the webbrowser, no?
What required tasks were too heavy for these computers under Windows 8/10?
And do they run off SSDs, or spinning HDDs?
Little side note
those computers in question had either i5-4750 (I think?) or i7-4970 so running windows 10 with all its bloat was not going to be an easy task
The i7-4790K is still quite powerful, so I'm pretty sure this wasn't the problem, at all. Perhaps they're running on an HDD, have little RAM, or you got the CPU wrong.
You can see the CPU and RAM by launching System Info from tbf start menu, and see if it's running on an SSD or HDD by launching Disks from the menu.
It is better NOT to put them in system directories since those will get overwritten by upgrades.
That's a purely Atomic thing, isn't it?

Same, this or the Breeze Snow cursor, depending on my overall theme at the moment.
