I misremembered the code names. The direct successor to the 7735HS (Rembrandt Refresh) are the 7840HS / 7940HS (Phoenix-H at 8 cores and upgraded to 4nm Zen4/RDNA3 and about 15% better performance per Watt); the upcoming 16 core is the 7945HX (Dragon Range, 5nm Zen4/RDNA2). Anyway, I just ordered another of one these to become my new Linux desktop, the first one will stay with Win11 Pro and Cygwin and become my new build box in the coming weeks. I added a 4TB SSD for archival storage last weekend, for now I'll keep the 500GB NVMe it came with for OS and builds as it seems to not limit anything in any meaningful way for now. If it turns out later that it does I'll just switch to a speedy 2TB NVMe later on (I already had one, but that will go into #2 as system / home drive as per the original plan).
