  • I ran a dual boot on my work laptop with Windows and Mint until I was fully ready to transition over to Linux. Might be worth doing the same? Recently got rid of the Windows boot and am now fully on Linux for work development. However, I’m not in the web development space so can’t comment on that. I use CLion, Intellij, and PyCharm for work.

    My home pc is fully Linux running Fedora which I use for gaming, no issues there running Proton through Steam. Have Lutris setup as well for League Of Legends, although that’ll be disappearing once Vanguard is integrated.











  • Pretty incorrect information. Aircooling > AIO any day of the week. Aircooling has been proven time and time again to give lower temps vs an AIO. see here Custom loop is a different story. It is also quieter and cheaper than an AIO. I’m not sure why you think an AIO doesn’t have a pump? How do you think the liquid flows through the lines, radiator and to the CPU, magic? The pump is what causes an AIO to be louder than its air cooled counterpart. The only argument for AIO is aesthetics which is a fair argument.

    The 64GB of RAM is absolutely overkill for gaming so 32GB is fine. A 850W PSU is also definitely overkill for a 6700 XT so could drop it down to a 750W and still have room for upgrading the GPU in future.

    The 6700 XT is the best price-performance GPU you can buy right now with the current ridiculous prices. It’s target is for 1440p gaming so your comment about 4K is irrelevant especially since he has picked a 1440p monitor.
