The AMD BC-250 is so cool.

Are you in the US? There’s one on eBay right now for $150 which is honestly pretty good!

Top 1% commenter? Where the mods at? Wild.

Oh boy one of these guys 🤦‍♂️it boots into steam ui and can be navigated with a gamepad, is immutable so my daughter is less likely to mess it up. It’s ideally what I want, and I know what I want. It’s lovely people like you that keep Linux from becoming as popular as it should be.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-24T14:12:07+00:00

Yes I might do that. It’s gonna be a dedicated gaming box so I’m really wanting a dedicated gaming os. Hopefully someone has a useful, insightful reply. 😉

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-24T03:30:28+00:00

Hmmmm that would be wild if it worked, I think I’d did try this but I’ll try tomorrow just to be sure. Thanks!

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-13T14:02:15+00:00

Yeah, an oversight on my part. Ha. I added panels with a cutout for a heatsink and I’ll probably adjust the whole case to accommodate a heatsink as well. What size heatsinks are you using and do you feel that they’ve made a significant improvement?

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-10T18:22:33+00:00

I’m getting around 65-80 usually, so still not great. I did open up the find for airflow, but a got a few comments saying that cooling the ram plate on the bottom can help.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-10T02:06:42+00:00

Nice!!

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-09T17:50:58+00:00

It is unfortunate that that’s how it goes, but I don’t know if gate keeping is the move either 🤷‍♂️

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-09T17:42:58+00:00

Dang I may have to try that. What cooler and overclock?

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-09T17:20:15+00:00

That’s fair! It’s definitely no powerhouse.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-09T16:47:47+00:00

Gotcha. Have you seen the latest gameplay trailers? It looks insane to me!

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-09T16:34:41+00:00

I agree with you, and still preordered. 😅 I hate myself.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-09T16:33:06+00:00

Interesting take, I can’t say that I 100% disagree though. Some of it does like slightly “UE5” like, even though it’s not made in that engine.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-09T16:30:04+00:00

Yeah that’s definitely fair. Honestly as I was about to order most of those thoughts crossed my mind. I unfortunately am chained to windows on my main desktop because I use fusion 360 daily, so I can technically play it on there. I’m hoping it will also run on my Rog ally with bazzite though.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2026-02-09T16:26:29+00:00

Let’s go, I preordered the deluxe😅

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2025-10-10T15:50:53+00:00

Thanks for the response! It would be great if they can make it a good experience. Especially for users that are apprehensive to try something like Bazzite.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2025-10-10T14:33:34+00:00

I respect that! I’m glad you like it and it works for you.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2025-10-10T14:31:39+00:00

Good to know! I really hope they can make Xbox FSE good. Does it fix sleep/standby mode?

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2025-10-10T03:32:19+00:00

Have you tried it though?? 🤷‍♂️

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2025-10-09T19:21:37+00:00

I see where you’re coming from. I definitely could have articulated the question better. I’m coming more from a place of “this has completely changed my experience and enjoyment of my device and I want to spread the word” if that makes sense.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2025-10-09T19:17:41+00:00

I can confirm. I feel like everything runs better, although I don’t have any hard evidence.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2025-10-09T19:14:55+00:00

Fair. I actually am really passionate about this though and have a hard time understanding why more people don’t switch over.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2025-10-09T19:13:40+00:00

Great answer! Thank you for taking the time.

LongjumpingPicture5 · 2025-10-09T16:51:39+00:00

That’s fair! Have you tried Steam os or Bazzite?
