gollark: That's... not a good reason.
gollark: <@267332760048238593> Why do you prefer Intel?
gollark: Funnily enough, Intel ends up being best for Linux gaming, since they only have open-source Linux drivers (unlike Nvidia's thing with only their bad proprietary drivers being supported and them being awful to open-source ones, and AMD's with the proprietary drivers being decent and open-source ones being mostly similar).
gollark: Also for gaming, though it's not that great because not all games actually support it, and also Nvidia drivers.
gollark: For a web-browsing/office-type system you can just run Linux.
