System76's Got Game With Its New Serval WS Laptop - FOSS Force
Today the folks at System76 announced an upgraded version of its Serval WS laptop computer, designed with engineers and gamers in mind, From the looks of it, this one’s so fast it threatens to reach escape velocity.
If you like gaming on Linux and you’re looking for a lightening fast laptop where everything Linux works perfectly out-of-the-box with no issues, you couldn’t do much better than this. Not only is it fast, it ships with an upgraded screen that offers totally fluid animations. For engineering types who have to spend hours with eyeballs glued to a screen, the new display also boasts text so crisp that you’ll greatly reduce your use of eye drops.
While it’s true that these days you can buy laptops running Linux from just about any computer maker, with System76 you’re highly unlikely to find some sort of hidden hardware conflict down the road that the folks at Dell, Asus, or HP might’ve missed because their focus is on their Windows bread-and-butter. System76 is different. Since the company got started 20 years ago, it’s produced nothing but high quality Linux machines. In fact, the company is so hard-core Linux that I doubt anyone there remembers what a BSOD looks like.
System76 Unveils Serval WS With RTX 5070 Ti and 2K 240Hz Display
System76 has broadened its workstation-class laptop lineup with a fresh revision of the Serval WS, a 16-inch portable designed to satisfy engineers, developers, and gamers alike.
The headline change, a 2K (2560 × 1600) panel running at 240 Hz, finally brings the Serval into the 16:10 era, giving users markedly more vertical space for code, CAD models, or spreadsheets while keeping motion buttery-smooth during high-frame-rate gameplay.
Under the aluminum skin, the Serval WS now pairs Intel’s Core Ultra 9 275HX—a 24-core “Meteor Lake” part— with NVIDIA’s freshly minted GeForce RTX 5070 Ti.
The CPU’s hybrid architecture is tuned for heavy parallel workloads; consequently, kernel builds and multi-threaded simulations should complete noticeably faster than on the outgoing 14th-gen silicon.
This New System76 Linux Laptop Has an RTX 5070 Ti, up to 92GB RAM
The Serval WS is one of the most powerful laptops in the System76 PC lineup, behind only the 18-inch Bonobo WS. The new Serval WS has an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor, with 8 performance cores, 16 efficiency cores, and a maximum turbo frequency of 5.4 GHz. It’s one of the Series 2 Core Ultra processors. The base model has 32GB DDR5 RAM, but you can configure it with up to a whopping 92GB. That’s a lot of Chrome tabs.
There’s only one option for the graphics card: an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. That will give you plenty of power for GPU-accelerated workloads, like video editing, 3D modelling, and local AI models. That’s also more than enough CPU and GPU power for PC games. System76 said in a press release, “With faster graphics, the Serval WS laptop is now better equipped than ever to run AAA games and helpful AI tools. These use cases are also supported by up to 96GB of DDR5 RAM, which is, as some experts might say, a lot of RAM.”
