From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Too late now, as I've already bought and have been using the R7 5700G for a long while now. This one is great, too. It boosts to 4.7 GHz. It has its own iGPU, 8 cores, 16 threads. It burns through everything I throw at it. Been very happy with it honestly. And the cherry on top was the price. I got it for $135. I'll be keeping it for a long while. I don't see any reason to spend more money. I literally have no issues with my system. Everything I do works no problem. All of the games I play work flawlessly (I never play multiplayer online stuff), why spend the extra money, you know?
