I don't plan on doing much gaming on it. Just regular laptop things.

The FOSS driver is bad but their distro specific drivers are usually ok. Their drivers from their site are usually straight up fucked.

But with that said, I'd go with AMD if it's an option.

I got a 3080 and it works great except for occasional v-sync issues on some Unity based games.
