I have the 13" AMD one. Only reason I still have Windows on it is because I can't get Davinci Resolve to run under Ubuntu. Otherwise very happy with my purchase.

Glad to hear that. I plan on getting the 16 but i have a concern about the expansion cards. Specifically the display port one. See i want to get the valve index but that needs Displayport to work. However i have read multiple times that the display port card is kinda buggy varying from person to person. Do you have any experience with the dp expansion card?

Sorry I don't. I only have the HDMI card.

Does the Index really need full DP or does it work via USB-C? Because in the end all those expansion cards are just USB-C accessories. I'm asking because we own a Quest2 and use it with USB-C and my desktop PC. Haven't tried it with my Laptop.

I think this may be dependent on the bandwidth. Cause some people in the framework forum reported that dp to thunderbolt adapter works but dp to hdmi doesn't. They also reported issues outside vr with the dp card specifically. So i was wondering wether you had any experience with it. Thank you anyway
