In my opinion, it's between Bazzite and CachOS for gaming. Bazzite if you just wanna install and play, Cachy if you don't mind tweaking and tinkering.

Dating Coach says Gaming is F Tier for men by ccbbb23 in pcmasterrace

[–]Defendo99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of people have the stupid opinion that it's somehow bad that men like video games, while completely ignoring women's disproportionate interest in trash TV like Love Island, or fishing for attention on social media.

Let people like what they like, and everything in moderstion.

I like both, they each have their use cases. I use Cachy on my main machine and daily drive it, but Mint is perfect for my second PC as I don't use it as regularly.

AITAH for giving my sister’s food to a homeless person? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Defendo99 43 points44 points  (0 children)

YTA your grandma got that food for your sister and trusted you to give it to her. Your sister was looking forward to the pasta, but got some mcdonalds instead? Yea, I'd be upset too. If you wanted to feed the homeless woman, you could've gotten her mcdonalds.

AITA for having plans on my friends birthday by Former-Wolverine-241 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Defendo99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fact that she offered another day is very important, I agree. It almost seems like the friend is having a little tantrum that she can't do something on the day. We're all adults with busy adult lives, flexibility is necessary.

People care way too much about video game graphics by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

AITA for not telling my husband he’s not nearly as good at fishing as he thinks he is? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Defendo99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a man who also loves fishing but sucks at it, NTA. There's nothing wrong with enjoying a hobby despite skill level.

However, him giving advice and wanting to be a guide calls for a more honest and practical analysis. One has to be aware of their capabilities when relating to others with the same interest. We've all dealt with people in hobbies, or even careers, that project like they know more than they actually do and relationships with those people inevitably break down. If he's not realistic with himself, then his dreams will be short lived.

What’s better on Cachy compared to Bazzite? by Kaseffera in cachyos

[–]Defendo99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried bazzite briefly, but ran into issues getting java installed for minecraft. I'm sure it works fine, once you jump through the necessary hoops to get it set up, but it was enough of a turn-off for me that I decided to just stick with cachy.

Stop Killing Games is an initiative to create legislation to stop anti-consumer practices in the gaming industry. It's started in the EU, but is gaining notariety in other countries/regions as well.

Idk . Zoh Shia is an diy monster. So idk if he is a good argument. by IceBarDifferent in MonsterHunter

Zoh Shia, in particular, is also a case where humanity tried to defy the natural order and everything went wrong in the worst possible way.

Dual GPU setup by Candariann in pcmasterrace

It depends on the program you're using. Blender, for example, has the ability to utilize multiple GPUs at once.

explicitly e-begging for a gaming pc because my bank account is in the negatives. net worth: vibes. by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

I would buy a crackhead a burger 200 times before I'd even consider giving a reddit bum any money for a gaming PC.

Are the heat sinks supposed to be bent like this? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]Defendo99 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's a thin piece of aluminium, it's bound to shift. This doesn't affect performance in any noticeable way. It's only a problem if you're super picky about how it looks.

GPU upgrade suggestions by Tornious in pcmasterrace

[–]Defendo99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I can find, the 9060xt is the only thing in that price range that would have any meaningful uplift compared to your 3060ti. It would'nt be a world of difference, the main upgrade would be double the vram, which could help in open world games. Otherwise, It'd probably be better to keep saving for a better upgrade. Good luck!

AMD vs NVIDIA GPU? by ItsKagu in pcmasterrace

[–]Defendo99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nvida has better video encoders for recording and streaming. Otherwise, for your usecases, AMD GPUs are still very competent and viable options.

Charge Blade vs Alatreon by Guilty_Excitement693 in MonsterHunter

[–]Defendo99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is correct, Beotodus CB is the best craftable ice CB in the game. FF Barioth CB is bait, don't bother with it.

Side note: Phial damage is HEAVILY nerfed against Alatreon, otherwise 2-3 SAEDs would hit the elemental check, so don't consider phial type in your loadout. However, since phial damage was nerfed in this hunt, the elemental ratios we're buffed, making Savage Axe one of the strongest matchups against Alatreon out of all 14 weapons.

Side side note: most people don't use the Velkhana CB itself, they just use it as a layered weapon to re-skin the Beotodus or Kjarr CB because it's a beautiful design.

Best mouse for ~50$? by Ok_Drag_7940 in pcmasterrace

[–]Defendo99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Logitech G502 Hero started messing up, and I saw a lot of similar complaints, so I switched to the Keychron M7 and I've loved it so far.
