Wifi 6E on my Intel network cards has been a PITA on any distro I’ve used. 6ghz either doesn’t work at all, or it constantly switches from 2.4/5 to 6ghz, then back to the point that Wifi is unusable, and I have to manually disable it. AX200, AX201, AX211 all suffering.
I do NOT like automatic updates when they happen during work hours,
Windows doesn’t automatically update during work hours. By default it tries to figure out when you use your computer, and it won’t reboot during those hours. You can manually configure it too.
It’s a security thing to have that warning. You’re not supposed to be able to bypass it for a reason.
If you don’t have the warning you can just relock the bootloader, but updates probably won’t work.
Relock the bootloader.
Core 100 series was out at the end of 2023. The LPE cores shouldn’t have been an issue.
Bleeding edge hardware slower on an older Linux distro. In other news water is wet.
That said it being that bad is legitimately impressive. It’s not like core 100 series where they changed from P + E to LP + P + E cores to shake things up. The 200 series shouldn’t be *that *different from it.
That’s the other thing. My new computer is a Mac Studio which takes up almost no space, and uses like 10-15 watts. Because I can just turn off my gaming computer when I’m not using it I’m saving significantly more power. Like just your CPU at idle uses more than the entire Mac actually doing things.
AMDs dual CCD CPUs tend to perform worse than their single ccd models in games. You can “fix” that by running the game only on one, and push everything else to the second. But I’d much rather not deal with that. A second computer is much easier.
Plus I can fuck with computer A when computer B is still doing other things without interrupting. That alone is worth it.
Also if you’re in a game and you have a video running that taking GPU horsepower. I’m not going to have a second GPU just to avoid that.
Performance. I’m a heavy multi tasker and I want nothing to get in the way of my frame rate.
For context my old second machine was a 2018 Mac mini with an 8th Gen. i5 and 32 gigs of ram. It wasn’t enough.
I have two computers at my main desk at home. One is exclusively used for gaming, the other is used for everything else. In theory Bazzite is perfect for me.
Ok. But this this is a post in a Linux community. So one might assume it’s targeted towards Linux users.
Lineage OS supports the Pixel tablet. But they don’t seem to be very cheap used even though it’s a couple years old.
thanks to work by Valve
AMD did nothing to make their drivers better, Vale did.
What model came out in 2022? The newest I could find was the GT 1010 from 2021 (which is more of a video adapter than an actual graphics card) but that’s the exception. The bulk of them came out in 2016 and 2017 https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/?f=architecture_Pascal
Hate to break it to ya, but 2020 was 5 years ago. More than half of these GPUs lifespan ago. Nvidia is a for profit company, not your friend. You can’t expect them to support every single product they’ve ever released forever. And they’re still doing better than AMD in that regard.
Pascal is coming up on 10 years old. You can’t expect companies to support things forever.
There’s swipe if that counts.
1st Gen. Ryzen had the worst memory controller known to man. What made it worse is that memory speed dramatically affected performance on those CPUs. Anything over 2133 was a blessing.
There’s no reason why a 32 gig stick of ram should be less stable than an 8. Your ram is defective. Ask for a replacement.
This is a steam deck, a game console, not a normal computer. If your taskbar is visible 70% of the time I question what you’re doing with the device.
Namecheap has random number only xyz domains for like a dollar so I have one of those.
