Even more reason to switch to Linux!

Absolutely correct, Microsoft giving everyone the reason to finally switched to Linux and AMD not wasting time or energy on that steamy pile of crap

But given AMDs support on Linux being so nice it's at least going to be a fairly painless switch

Are they... releasing Linux support?

AMD began submitting Zen 5 patches for Linux this time last year and have been steadily submitting in anticipation of Zen 5 / Ryzen 9000.

So technically they’ve already released Linux support.

Edit: Proof from kernel.org showing Zen 5 named specifically.

Sounds promising, crossing my fingers!

AMD has been supporting Linux officially for a very long time (both on the CPU [and chipset] and GPU side of things).

We get it, Linux good Windows bad. I agree, but we don't need to see this comment on every post.

Almost like discussing AMD's driver support on alternate OSes is relevant.

If you got upset by someone mentioning Linux, just scroll by. Or downvote if you really are that petty.
