Ubuntu 20.04 LTS A Nice Upgrade For AMD Ryzen Owners From 18.04 LTS – Phoronix.

Does Linux support Ryzen?

Linux works very well on a Ryzen CPU and AMD graphics. It is especially nice because the graphics drivers are open source and work perfectly with things like Wayland desktops and are nearly as fast as Nvidia without needing their closed source binary only drivers.

Does Ubuntu work with AMD?

All versions of Ubuntu are compatible with both AMD and Intel Processors. Download the 16.04. 1 LTS (Long Term Support) and you’re ready to go. Just make sure you choose the right processor architecture i.e 32/64bit version.
