I just built a Linux computer with a Ryzen 9 7900 paired with an intel a750 (couldn't resist the 200 dollar price tag).

I boosted the power target to about 125 watts and it runs like a charm. The GPU also just friggin worked. Not "just worked" as in "forget about your Nvidia driver, compile a kernel and end up with a text only boot". I haven't done anything, and suddenly I can do av1 encoding or run 3 screens in 4k60 without a hitch.
