Considering the Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370 for Fedora

I am a long-time Mac user. Looking to make the move to Linux (Fedora). Have many MacBooks and thinking about just selling them off and getting a nice 13” Framework laptop that I can travel with and use as a secondary computer for development, gaming, and video editing.

Like the specs of the Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370 but I’m concerned thermals are going to be a problem. Is this too much processor for such a small chassis with a single fan? Will the fan be on just sitting idle?

Also, is Fedora trouble free at this point, or should I expect driver issues?

Finally, is the 13” with the HX 370 dual or single channel memory?

Thank you.
