Phoronix’s Michael Larabel is doing some performance testing on Walmart’s $199 Motile-branded M141 laptop (which has an AMD Ryzen 3 3200U processor, Vega 3 graphics, 4GB of RAM, and a 14-inch 1080p display).
But first, he compared the performance of its pre-installed Windows 10 OS against the forthcoming Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Linux distribution.
Some highlights:
- Java text rendering performance did come out much faster on Ubuntu 20.04 with this Ryzen 3 3200U laptop…
- The GraphicsMagick imaging program tended to run much better on Linux, which we’ve seen on other systems in the past as well.
