Kubuntu Focus M2 with Nvidia GPU
Kubuntu serves best when it comes to serving gamers and performance-hungry professionals as it has started to offer Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 30-series graphics processor with its Kubuntu GNU/Linux distribution-based M2 laptop.
Linux-based laptops prove to be niche products for specific requirements users, so the variety of products is limited. Yet powerful hardware in high-end notebooks is offered by few companies that can give competition to the corresponding Windows counterparts. One prominent name in these few companies is Kubuntu Focus that offers such a machine.
What’s Inside?
A 15.6-inch 144Hz Full-HD display and Intel’s Core i7-10875H (8C/16T, 2.30GHz/5.10GHz) processor is included in the Kubuntu Focus M2 that was first brought into the limelight in October. At that time, no mobile GeForce RTX 30-series GPUs featuring the Ampere architecture were available so the manufacturer offered Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 20-series graphics processors based on the Turing architecture.
