Theoretically speaking, yes you should be able to install Linux on this laptop. The real question is *should* you install Linux? I'm going to go ahead and say no, you probably shouldn't. Before you get upset with me, please know that I'm an avid Linux fan and am currently typing this comment on Linux Mint 20. I honestly wouldn't advocate installing Linux on any brand new hardware until the Linux community has had the chance to add proper support/drivers in the kernel etc (which typically takes several months). There's absolutely nothing stopping you from nuking Windows and installing the Linux distro of your choice, however be warned that something is likely to break and/or an advertised feature might not be available in Linux (like Ray Tracing for example). Not to mention the fact that you likely won't get much support from the Linux community because of how new the laptop is (I'm not saying the Linux community isn't helpful, just that it's hard to support hardware that's so new it's unfamiliar to everyone). You might have better luck 6 months or so after this laptop is released, by then the Linux community should have caught up and added all the relevant drivers etc. Once again, you're certainly free to try and install Linux, just be warned that you're mostly on your own if something doesn't work right. Cheers mate!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
