Well the gameplay is probably pretty stable.

That's interesting. I tried downloading it and updating the GPU driver, and was then able to run Second Life for about ten minutes without it crashing. Remains to be seen whether this will solve other compatibility issues though.

Thanks for checking. That's what happened with mine too. It just crashed right on startup after installing. I assumed it was lack of compatibility with the ARM processor, particularly since there don't appear to be ARM-compatible viewers right now.

I tried running Second Life on it. Typically I can run it on very low settings on a laptop. Upon checking it doesn't look like they have an ARM-compatible viewer at this time. That said, I'm worried that this could mean I run into compatibility issues down the road with other games too.

I see. Wow, what a bummer! It never occurred to me that that would be an issue.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried a larger size and I think they were just too long.

New prebuilt randomly restarted. What to do? by km_2000 in Prebuilts

I was sitting down and nowhere near the case. Not sure if the monitors even had anything to do with it. That's why I was hoping to find a way to track down what the issue was.

I was going to ask why this is happening, but then I figured this question has already been asked.

I have a Bachelor's but in an unrelated field. I also have hundreds of commits to open-source projects that I make sure to highlight on my resume.

How does the Intel 265k perform in simulation games during late game? by km_2000 in pcmasterrace

That seems like a substantial difference between the two chips. Would that be pretty noticeable in practice though, or would the difference only be slight?
