I’ve been slow to make an upgrade, and figure what better time to switch to linux?

Did what I could to try to research that the parts were all fairly linux friendly, with a warning about the motherboard’s wifi7 maybe not yet supported yet by the kernel.

Looking for a mid-high range build without going crazy on the cost. Build actually came in a bit cheaper than I expected, so feel like maybe I’m missing something here.

My monitor, which I’m planning to keep, does have G-Sync, but I don’t know that I’ll miss it.

PS: I know i can get more life out of my old hardware, but I want to turn that into a NAS.

EDIT: Fixed link.

    AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 4.2 GHz 8-Core Processor

    Can’t go wrong there. This processor will go down as one of the best of all time.

    Overall the build looks extremely solid. AMD on linux these days is 🤌 💋

    Extremely solid build. Probably right in the sweet spot for cost-to-performance and being at least somewhat future proof. 16gb of vram is a bit on the shy side, but probably fine for a decade or so of gaming.

      Thanks for the feedback.

      Thinking of going with PopOS, as it seems like a good fit with decent dev support out of the box.

      FWIW, I’m coming from a lot of experience with MacOS as my primary dev environment, and loads of sshing into various terminal environments.
