  1. Oh, the one concern I've got with the 560x one is whether its drivers support linux or not Yeah, there are not a lot of options in that range yet
  2. Yeah they're pretty famous for their pricing I guess Around ~$800
  3. Hello So I'm a long time lurker that finally is upgrading to a new laptop for college, here it goes: So I have two choices that are under my budget and seem good, both are exactly the same with R5 3550H, 8GB Ram, a 1TB HDD/SHDD, etc, with just GPU and screen differences. The first one has a rx 560x 4GB with a 60hz Freesync display (https://www.amazon.in/FX505DY-BQ002T-15-6-inch-5-3550H-Windows-Graphics/dp/B07MSK34LL/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?keywords=tuf&qid=1563867915&s=gateway&smid=A14CZOWI0VEHLG&sr=8-1) and the second has a 1050 3GB with a non-GSync 120hz display (https://www.amazon.in/FX505DD-Graphics-5-3550H-Windows-FX505DD-AL185T/dp/B07RQM12TR/ref=mp_s_a_1_7?keywords=tuf&qid=1563867915&s=gateway&smid=A14CZOWI0VEHLG&sr=8-7) Now I am planning to upgrade it with a m.2 ssd and another 8GB stick for dual channel right after buying, so that should give it a slight boost to maybe possibly pushing the 1050 to utilize the 120hz display. The normal use case would be using DaVinci Resolve/Premiere, MATLAB, and occasional gaming on the side. Which one do you all think would be better, a 560x with Freesync or a 1050 with 120hz but without GSync Thanks in Advance
