Note: I thought about it and really felt like it belongs here. It's not about hardware, such as it is about Linux drivers/compatibility. Am I wrong?
I'm not new to Linux - but I mostly administered VMs here and then.
While considering which board to buy for my new PC (, and while thinking of Microsoft's announce about 22H2 being the last Windows 10 update ), I started to entertain with the thought of installing Linux on my main workstation.
I will probably buy the AMD 7900X CPU, and am considering these motherboards:
- Gigabyte X670 GAMING X AX
- Gigabyte X670 AORUS ELITE AX
I'm mostly wondering about the motherboard/chipset compatibility with Linux, since the rest ( HDD, SSD, GPU, RAM ) should already be supported. I guess it will work, but I preffer to buy something that'll work **better**.
Where can I find such info? Did anybody had an experience with one of these motherboards?
- Gigabyte's website only shows Windows 10/11 downloads
- Ubunto only shows prebuilt in their website ( and most of them are OLD )
Thanks for the help!
