My computer can't upgrade to Win11 and I am buying a new one, but I'm putting Linux on it.
My computer can upgrade to win11. I clearly remember the vendor stating that when I bought it last year.
I'll stick to linux, though.
Mine too. I tried 11 and went back to 10. Honestly, only thing keeping me on Windows currently is my plex*arr servers. Guess I have a year to figure out docker.
Just pointing out, Plex and *arr work on Linux too...
LOL.
I cannot seem to find that setting in uefi to turn on that chip... Anyway, I keep trying to get my VR library (98 games) to register more than 3, and room setup is a major stroke of luck.
If there are any suggestions on a distro that will power my rtx 4070ti super, ryzen 7 3800, 32 gb ram, HTC Vive, on its own 4tb sata SSD, I would like to hear them. So far Kubuntu has gotten me the closest.
I have parts on the way to build a new PC. Believe it or not, also Linux.
