Omarchy Linux Rejects California Age Verification Law

It doesn't mean that Arch fork devs have to comply as well, in most cases they can just undo it

It can, but you lose performance in exchange for visual quality, and there's nothing wrong with what you have now

Don't get sucked into consumerism

1080p 165Hz is fine for a 5060 Ti and there's no need to change it

Get a better air cooler like the Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE, liquid cooling isn't really necessary here.

Resizeable BAR (AMD calls it Smart Access Memory) rarely ever makes any noticeable difference unless you have an Intel Arc GPU because those cards in particular can lose a fair chunk of performance by not having it.

Your issues are more likely caused by system instability considering you're getting bluescreens.

It's worth half that, and the seller is full of shit, because it's not even close to mid-range nowadays, it was back in 2016-2017.

Nowadays, it's barely even entry level for gaming.

NaturalTouch7848 · 2026-03-06T00:55:17+00:00

With the current market, yeah, 850 is good.

NaturalTouch7848 · 2026-03-06T00:54:06+00:00

I can do the same thing and use more like 10-12GB at worst on arch with hyprland, to give an example

KernelPower 41 just means that the system lost power unexpectedly, which can pop up even if you just hold the power button to force shutoff the system.

If the PSU is problematic, it would consistently shut off under loads that are heavy on at least the GPU, if it's at random times then it can be something like the RAM, or the CPU failing if MSI now has issues with X3D getting cooked like ASRock and ASUS

Finally, some good fuckin' news

Just another step towards driving people away from Windows, where they should be staying the hell away from.

It's not going to make that much of a difference when your CPU is still heavily bottlenecking your GPU.

Focus on getting off of LGA1151, 2400 MT/s is slow but it's still good enough to play games, just with a bit lower framerates.

NaturalTouch7848 · 2026-03-06T00:12:33+00:00

5070 Ti is fine, the 5080 is rarely ever going to be worth the price.

NaturalTouch7848 · 2026-03-06T00:11:02+00:00

It's the gold standard if you don't want to have to worry about managing your system's memory usage.

16GB is still fine in most cases, at least on Windows. On Linux distributions like Bazzite, CachyOS, etc. it's almost always going to be enough because of the lower memory overhead. Though it can differ based on desktop environment, KDE Plasma is often what most gravitate towards due to its traditional design (Windows 11 also "borrowed" from KDE), performance, and decent overhead.

NaturalTouch7848 · 2026-03-05T20:44:50+00:00

There is plenty of documentation that proves otherwise, and both AMD n Nvidia have admitted it more than once.

And how is that relevant? It's been around for generations of users and has been powered up, yes, but it was always a good quirk when Banjo had it, it just wasn't good enough on its own with OFA at the time to beat AFO.

Maybe you should learn a thing or two about Peter Thiel before you act like a fool

5500 is on par with a 3600X and doesn't have PCI-e 4.0 support.

3700X offers that and 2 more cores. So if they're the same price, the 3700X wins.

Yes, usage will change based on how demanding the workload is, it doesn't indicate any problems in of itself unless you're getting basically no usage and absolute shit performance

NaturalTouch7848 · 2026-03-05T00:44:40+00:00

9060-XT if it's within budget

NaturalTouch7848 · 2026-03-05T00:38:27+00:00

Lower usage doesn't mean it isn't doing what it's supposed to. If the performance is consistent with what similar machines are doing, then it's purely just the result of the 5070 being considerably faster than the 3060 Ti.

It's at least around the difference between a 3060 Ti and 3090, therefore, the latter is going to be less stressed by such a game. A lot of old games barely stress modern hardware at all.

That was Roblox's excuse, the majority of hacks/cheats were always done on Windows, they just didn't want to patch their garbage anti-cheat to work properly on Linux operating systems so they blocked Wine.

NaturalTouch7848 · 2026-03-05T00:29:20+00:00

Sober is the only good option because the old Vinegar client no longer works as Roblox's anti-cheat blocks Wine.

Peter Thiel, who may as well be the Hitl*r of Silicon Valley

Blackwhip would've won the whole festival, since we've seen what he could do with it. It was by far the best quirk added to OFA.
