Keep noticing that when taking about Linux distro recommendations (on Reddit) users recommend Mint and Ubuntu for gaming....

Wondering if my next upgrade should be an OLED screen or not. It looks amazing, but how is the current compatability with Linux these days? Anyone with one of these sexy screens that would like to share their experiences?...

I finished my first build a few months ago, put fedora workstation on it, everything’s been great so far, but there are a few games I have and love which don’t work, or are incredibly unstable. so I’m looking for a small, let’s say 256gb SSD, to dual boot with windows for those games as well as creative work with...

I was troubleshooting Bluetooth connection today and I thought that this is somehow related to software (PipeWire, bluez, bluetoothd and all that stuff). But no. Apparently Bluetooth barely works when WiFi antenna is disconnected from my ASUS motherboard....

The “startup repair” Macrium offers is garbage and won’t even load, so while I have all my data, I don’t have an OS…...

I am happy I could still get it in red 😋...

I’ve had my index for a year or two now, I’ve got both desktop and my beefy AF laptop that I play it on, but both are still super janky. The laptop is actually better for it believe it or not but I still get some hiccups here and there....

Total that got cut of there was £3,309. Which to be fair given what it allows me to do now will mean it should pay for itself within a couple of years worst case....

To achieve this feet feat, I am rendering a Project in Davinci Resolve, while compressing two other videos with Handbrake....

So your probably reading this thinking, OK its a PC same old stuff. Well here is a long story....

So, my budget is 3KGBP, my use case is i do 3d modelling work (have done for 25years now), and would like a better machine that i can do (light) GPU render tests on. It will likely also do short (few days) runs of CPU rendering too....

Aside from fps, is there any difference in quality of raytracing in Nvidia and AMD or is it the same(like they say that DLSS is better than FSR)?

Hey folks, I’ve got two 1920x1080 monitors that are connected to my PC (with a 1070TI) via DP->HDMI cables. I’ve recently purchased a Dock (DELL wd22tb4) for my work laptop and want to use the same monitors. My monitors have hdmi and dvi inputs (let’s ignore the vga)....
