04 LTS with the NVIDIA driver and Tuxedo Control Center for fan curves and the GPU mux preinstalled, same vendor-tuned story as the Gen6. 11 or newer for clean s2idle, and the RTX 5070 Ti to 5090 still needs the standard NVIDIA proprietary stack.

5070 Ti to 5090 still needs the standard NVIDIA proprietary stack. SO-DIMM DDR5-5600 to 128 GB across two slots, PCIe 5.0 NVMe. No fingerprint reader by design.
- Fedora Minor setup

- Bluetooth : works

- Webcam : works
- Audio : works
- Suspend : needs tweak
Fedora 41 or newer for Arrow Lake HX; you lose Tuxedo Control Center, so fan and mux control fall back to manual. RPM Fusion akmod-nvidia for the 5070 Ti/5080/5090.
