From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

OP is it the 7700 non-x 65w tdp version? Asking because I'm thinking about upgrading my CPU from 5600x to the 7700non-x and have the same gpu. I was actually wondering how throwing that integrated graphics into the mix would work so thanks for asking this and looking forward to your findings if you don't mind posting however you end up solving this.

Yes, I have the non x version. I think the one with x has a higher tdp. I'll probably look into this this weekend. Hopefully, I'll find something out that's helpful to you.
