Fingers crossed that we get much better sleep performance, my 11th Gen dies in less than a day in sleep
@Rand @Nitrousoxide Just got my 13th gen with FW-supplied RAM (and a Corsair SSD).
Lost 2% in 6 hours using Fedora 38. I haven't tried Windows yet.
I had USB-C, 2 * USB-A and audio card inserted, then just shut the lid for a meeting and forgot all about it until I opened the lid in the evening.
So it can work well. I expect progress will continue, although hibernation would be nice as well.
Old comment, I know, but have you looked into the deep sleep option if on Linux? Also, there are massive power draws with some of the modules. I only keep one USB C module installed because of the power drain. It's maddening since it kinda was a selling point but my battery life is great on the OG 11
I have my AMD board now and it only supports S2Idle but I think overall it performs a lot better than my 11th gen did. I can get 2 days of sleep from a full charge about where my 11th gen would die from 100 overnight no matter what I tried. Also I use 4x USB-C so those are fine on power draw
