What may be the world's first Linux laptop (at least in a very long time) has arrived on the market as Tuxedo Computers' Sirius 16 Gen 1 (via Phoronix). It's an all-AMD device featuring the Ryzen 7 7840HS (Phoenix) and the RX 7600M XT and can be configured with tons of RAM and storage. It's got the specs to impress (not unlike its 14-inch non-gaming sibling), but its viability for gaming hinges on Linux's readiness for gaming.
Hardware-wise, Tuxedo is taking a very balanced approach with the Sirius 16. 16-inch laptops aren't tiny, but at just 2.2 cm thick, they're not nearly as chunky as higher-end devices. Being equipped with an RX 7600M XT will also limit its performance, but it's by no means a slow GPU, and it's the same graphics card getting tapped for some of the latest eGPUs. Not everyone wants a massive gaming laptop, and the 7600M XT is a good fit for a 16-inch player like the Sirius 16.
