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.

    I’d probably get the 9070 XT over the 7080 XT, just for full performance FSR4 (there’s some compatibility with it on Linux, but it’s slower). Maybe even the non-XT model for the same reason.

    I feel like you might be able to do better price wise on the RAM, although I’m not up to date on current prices for DDR5.

    EDIT: I see you have an itx case, so maybe that limits your GPU options a bit.

      I concur. I would only get a 7000 series card if I wanted the 20 or 24 GB of RAM from a 7900 XT or XTX, since there isn’t an equivalent high-end 9000 series card.

      It appears to support 3-slot cards, so it should be fine.

      Guess I need to look into benchmarks a little bit more here for 9000 series vice 7000 series.
