ThinkPad T14 Gen 5

It is noticanle but completely fine. During inference, the memory controller sweats a lot, its temperature rises to ~55Celsius. So it creates a single warm spot on the keyboard. I have Intel U (meteorlake). For the inference on iGpu, choose AMD primarily because of the kernel graphic driver. Intel's

I optimized my intel 165U quite well for battery on linux. Wifi browsing for maybe 8 hours. Despite that I would recommend amd ryzen. Mightbe battery would be worse a small bit or two bits, but other than that it is more mature chip for overall real tasks. And more energy efficient for longer lastin

Build quality of Lenovo isn't as great as it once wise. I had a T14 gen 5 and it felt cheap and had issues with the touchpad. Opted for the X1carbon with a dedicated fingerprint sensor, much better. Also no errors with the trackpad. But all at added cost. It addition, win 11 is absolutely garbage an

Between personal and company, I had 10 laptops or so. Dell, HP, Asus. My T14G5 just works. That's it. Whatever I throw at it, it works. I never had such a seamless and easy experience installing linux as in this laptop. I tried really hard to find anything wrong with it, the best I came up with was

Found one for about 1,300 dollars. I'll buy it when there's a chance for me to mod it with a better screen. Because 268v with a 120 hz would definitely go better. I am not a huge OLED fan, an IPS would go just as well for me. The only problem is the compatibility issues that Lenovo firmware has as f

Reinterpreting this slightly as "would I take a 5070 for my 9070", my answer is still no. My server is all-Intel (Haswell-era Xeon with an ARC A380). My desktop (5800X3D) and laptop (ThinkPad T14G5 Ryzen 8840U) are all-AMD. Wouldn't have it any other way.

I'd love to if ThinkPad didn't drop the ball on repairability and Linux compatibility for the last few generations. It feels wrong to buy a lower performing Intel t14g5 that's slower than the amd variant for the same money simply because of the poor decision to use Qualcomm. The elitebook is unfortu

16GB RAM is probably enough. For modern web browsers on Windows? Not really. I wouldn't buy anything under 32GB (or upgradeable) for that kind of money these days. Luckily the T14G5 has dual SO-DIMM slots, so if you go with that you should be fine. As for Snapdragon... that entirely depends if your

GPU issues? Multi screen? Could you elaborate? As someone typing this on a P14sG3 AMD I would go Intel if I was getting a T14G5 - the AMD stuff (and Qualcomm WiFi) is still a surprising struggle if you want everything working perfectly.
