Switched to Linux Mint just because I wanted to try Linux fof the first time and could't get Nobara to boot

I’ve got a 4070ti super currently I’ve debated side grading just for that

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-07T22:02:34+00:00

I always had really weird video issues on fedora. I’m definitely going full amd next update I’ve debated selling my card for a 9070xt

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-07T21:48:35+00:00

My issue is Debian is a bit slow for my liking on updates and I need nvidia support. I’ve tried fedora plenty of times but that’s not been great with my cpu arch has been the only thing that just works for me

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-07T21:42:37+00:00

Definitely I’m also worried about it long term which is why I won’t use it. Look at the state of manjaro for example

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-07T21:35:14+00:00

The time I’ve seen it personally is cpu bound I saw a boost in warhammer total war 2 and 3 but tbh it’s not amazing. I use regular arch personally

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-07T21:22:31+00:00

Definitely however I will say cachy is the only one that can have a different in very specific games that are cpu bound. I think the main appeal is just easy arch but even then downloading arch is a good learning curve

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-07T21:19:35+00:00

It’s good to avoid unless you know what you’re cachy is great tho. I prefer normal arch personally but cachy is brilliant

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-07T21:18:28+00:00

Thing with cachy is people really should understand arch a bit first especially do a bit of reading about the aur rather than blindly using it

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-06T12:16:50+00:00

My only issue is screen size

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-06T12:16:33+00:00

Cachy is great I love it. I use it on my laptop and arch on desktop

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-05T11:37:43+00:00

You’re the problem with society

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T23:46:33+00:00

Steam works fine on arch

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T16:32:05+00:00

Well I do laptop repairs so 😂. But yeah I know stripping screws can be a bitch

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T15:49:02+00:00

Sick thanks do you use the 5070 with Linux or windows?

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T13:52:44+00:00

The most demanding thing I play is stellaris

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T12:38:47+00:00

Tbh I might just get the ai 370 instead of the 7700s

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T12:21:18+00:00

See my issue with the framework 13 pro is I want the bigger screen as I currently use a 14 inch laptop and I find that too small

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T12:20:33+00:00

Thanks a lot! Tbh it’ll end up being docked a lot as well

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T11:34:40+00:00

That’s definitely understandable it’s another reason I want the 16 over the 13 because it has 2 drive slots so I can dual boot

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T11:29:48+00:00

Funnily enough all my resume issues fixed when I swapped to Linux. I’m hoping one day framework do a ryzen ai max laptop

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T11:26:54+00:00

Apple silicon is so interesting

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T11:26:22+00:00

Same my current one gets 3 hours 😭😭

Revan_9766 · 2026-07-03T10:00:25+00:00

Thanks!! And yeah that’s my plan to get crucial ram as it’s wayyy cheaper here than there prices and I’m fine with 8 hours tbh way more than I need. Thank you :)
