  • I’m not amd guy… I’ve used Intel and Nvidia for ages and ages… when my last upgrade failed hardware wise… I bought a Intel minipc from Beelink with an Intel ultra 5 125h.

    It came with windows 11.

    I’m a dad of a 1 yr old. who is playing stardew with his wife right now.

    Ive formatted a handful of times to different Linux distros to see which felt better for me on this PC.

    Manjaro, kubuntu, Debian, kde neon.

    Currently I’m running kde neon. Out of the box it likes to reboot on updates… so I found a non-sudo needed cli command to fix that. (It’s a setting apparently in settings)

    Anyway…l say all this to say… the way steam is now… and how graphics cards are… you can pretty well run what you want.

    Granted it’s antidotal from me… But as long as you’re not buying the absolute latest stuff from a hardware vendor… You’d be fine.

    If I was buying now I’d probably not buy the Intel chips that are having troubles but the gen before that… and probably some 3xxx Nvidia card.

    And not hesitate to run any distro I wanted.

    Ps I like apt… because that’s what I’m comfy with. So I tend to use distros that use apt. Tho manjaro is nice because of the aur… But they have issues company wise
