Hi Thanos, I have no answers to your questions but you can try Debian Live images on the laptop: https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current-live/amd64/bt-hybrid/ If you have not bought the laptop and you are not going to play games on it then I would recommend Intel CPU with integrated video card. Drivers for Intel hardware are fantastic. HTH Kind regards Georgi
