Hi all, I have just built my first PC ever. And having dealt with nvidia the last 5 years on Linux and experiencing the pain first hand, I went all AMD. For now, I only have the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G and this things is a beast (I’m saving up for an AMD GPU). The only thing I do is emulate some old games. I’m still getting some...
