By the way, i was stuck on a 8 year old laptop for 6-7 years. After i bought the computer i nearly cried. I was so patient ngl

Intel® Core™2 Quad Q8400
Radeon™ RX 550 4GB
Not sure about the RAM but DDR2 (four sticks) and i have 6GB in total
2 HDDs - the main one of 80GB where i have the OS installed (i use gentoo btw)
And second one one of 500GB where i save personal stuff, lol (steam/gog/epic vidya, music, and cringe 4chan/furry stuff)
A TP Link wifi adapter (the one with two antennas but no bluetooth sadly)
And for PSU a cheap one ig cuz its like 500w
anyway, ik the gpu is pretty strong for a weak cpu like a quad but at least i can play Just Cause 2 and Sleeping Dogs at max.

Well if it makes a diffrence using it as a dram cache thats fine.

• random cheapo 1TB SSD I forgot the brand name and I don't feel like opening my PC just for a forum post

• NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti w/ power limit of 90% (my PSU doesn't really like Ampere power spikes and limiting the power draw helped with that without taking away from the performance, card even runs a degree cooler )

I use a acer nitro 5 and it has 8GB of ram its a intel core i7 and it has a nvida geforce rtx 3050 also nugg3t made me signup.

Yeah.. I think that’s all you need to know.

Recently upgraded my system so I'm re-posting

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700x (unchanged)
RAM: 64GB DDR4 3200MHz (unchanged)
GPU #1: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6gb (dedicated to Linux)
GPU #2: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060ti (dedicated to Windows)
Also upgraded to a 1000w PSU from a 650w to accomodate the new GPU.

I did this upgrade to give me more flexibility, I can have a Windows VM with the 3060ti for gaming and heavy-duty gamedev work, and I can use Linux for everything else. I no longer have to deal with Single-GPU passthrough either, so I can use both OSes at once using looking-glass for Windows.

Is there any reasons why you did not pick an AMD GPU for Linux?

Nothing too exciting:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6800
RAM: 64GB DDR4 @ 3200MHz
Storage: 2 x 1TB NVMe Samsung 970 Evo

I also have a thunderbolt add-in card, because I can't just do a "simple" setup.

Recently bought a new GPU so currently I'm pretty proud of it:

• MOBO : GIGABYTE B460 HD3

• CPU : i5 - 10600k

• RAM : 16GB (2x8) Corsair Vengeance LPX Black CL15

• GPU : NVIDIA RTX 3070 (FE)

• SSD : Samsung PM981 256GB (scaved from my ThinkPad)

and 3 random HDDs
