Debian (stable or testing, depending on your taste).

I hope your experience is better than mine, though. I've had mine (12th-gen Intel) for 2 years now with a terrible thermal throttling issue, and support alternates between asking me to do the same things over and over, and ghosting me for months at a time. Judging by the community forums, it's a common-enough problem too.

I assume you're getting either the Core Ultra or whatever the current AMD board is... hopefully they're better.

If they come out with a new mainboard next year, I feel like (after 3 years of owning the 12th-gen) I can justify a mainboard upgrade (though I guess it'll also mean new RAM, ugh), and pray that it's actually a hardware problem (and not a problem with the embedded controller's firmware), and that it's been quietly fixed.
