Other than framework (out of stock) does anyone know of a good linux gaming laptop with a dedicated AMD GPU? (equivalent to 3060 or more) that I can buy in the UK?

any help would be appreciated- these seem to be rare.

AMD AI Framework 13s are 1-3 weeks. 7000 series are within 5 days, but that's because they're selling old stock to clear. 16s are 1-3 weeks too.

I would really call that "sold out". That's just built to order and shipped from Taiwan which is what a smaller firm will do.

Its the 16 I would be interested in - and yeah I should of said "out of stock" I guess?

It's normal. They're a small company that offers a customisable product. They can't afford to have all the different options pre-built. So they build to order from the standard parts. That takes a little time. Somebody has to put the bits in a chassis, make sure it all works together, and if you're doing the DIY version, remove the bits you're not taking from them, and then ship it to you.

They're never going to be a brand you just buy off the shelf.
