I didn’t realize that Intel has been changing the socket that often. That’s really lame, and gives me another reason to move to AMD. And my 3070 is pretty much the max for my case and MOBO.

I use mangohud overlay and while I don’t track each CPU core, I track the overall percentage and it hardly over 60% while gaming.

I actually have a really nice monitor, 4k and 144hz. I would like to change to AMD, but I’m at the point where I’d have to upgrade my whole system. Oh really? That sucks, glad to know I wasted all that time waiting for shaders to compile lol

I didn’t even know this site existed. This is really helpful, thanks!

That’s what I was thinking too. And right now I can’t upgrade my GPU anymore without also upgrading my PSU. I also didn’t think about the mobo socket component, so that does limit me more anyway. I will just keep this one until it doesn’t keep up with the newest titles and then go to AMD for my next PC.

As a fellow drummer myself, I would def get an E kit. I got myself a Roland kit a couple years ago and it’s been amazing. It has really allowed me to improve and hone my skills. Also, just because you have enough for a drum kit, I wouldn’t get the cheapest one out there. You want it to last you a good while.

Found it, thanks!

That’s a good idea. For some reason I didn’t even think to go to guitar center. Thanks!

I got an error with the link you sent

The eargasms look good also, ill compare them to the earasers and see which ones fit my needs best.

That’s what I was thinking. I know custom molds are the best, but with how little I go it seems unnecessary. The eargasms that someone else mentioned look pretty good.

That’s what my friend said also, but he also said that I have to make an appointment with an audiologist to get them properly fit and that seems like it would be really expensive. Ive seen custom molds that you do at home. Are those suitable?

And another thing that I forgot to mention is that I’m not a huge concert goer. I maybe see 1 per year.

This worked. My first install of mangohud was through the git hub instructions. But when I installed it through my package manager, it works in steam now. Thanks

So then how would I use it in lutris and steam?

I’m on Linux mint 22 and my audio outputs don’t change automatically. When I plug in USB headphones, audio won’t output to them unless I manually change it in settings.

Also, why can’t I interact with the panel applets (on the right side) while I’m in game? For example: I’m playing a game, I plug in my headphones, I have to manually change the audio output so I hit the “windows” key to bring up the panel, but I can’t interact with any of the applets on the right side of the panel (I can’t select the audio icon and change settings from there). I have to search audio settings in the panel then alt tab to it. It’s really cumbersome

OK, thanks for the clarification. I wasn’t planning on having them using the drive at the same time so I shouldn’t have any issues.

It won’t be an issue for both PCs to access it. I’ll try making another partition. Thanks!

OK, thank you.

thanks for the clarification. I just recently got into linux and don’t know much, but as i was researching Fedora, that’s what i came across. Which is a pretty big turn off for a newcomer migrating from windows and wanting to get away from big corporations.

Isn’t red hat enough reason to not use fedora?
