For real, if it really happens, then I don't know why you guys use Arch. They have a great wiki, but I'd rather use Debian with a minimal net install and build a DE from there.

2 times I updated Fedora and something serious broke requiring a reinstall.

Systemd, ancient packages in "stable" and bleeding edge packages elsewhere, and a bureaucracy that would make the people in that Futurama episode impressed.

Great as a base for other things, weak on its own.

Claims to be a normie but calls it gnu/linux (yeah sure).
>>have to install software from source
Not using the package manager.
>>ooops, followed the instructions and it compiled without qt!
Compiled from source without a frontend...
>>have to use program from command line with no frontend
and then complains there is no frontend.
>>there is no config file to change controls in
I'm glad you are having issues.

I know it's massively overkill for me. I mostly code websites and apps and do a decent amount of video encoding as well as a lot of mySQL work. The only games I play are Witcher 3, Diablo 3, and Overwatch. The idea of this thread is to get a general consensus of what a user such as myself, who does a little bit of everything, really needs.

You could alternatively get a smaller SSD for OS only and mechanical for storage

What resolution are you gaming at?
>>
>>55084925
I have a dual monitor setup 1920x1080 on the side and I do mostly everything on my 2560x1080 ultrawide. The side monitor usually just runs putty windows so I can get quick status updates when I'm pushing changes to servers
>>
>>55084925
I use the SSD as a main because I'm lazy with personal file management and don't like to move things to my NAS as they accumulate on my drive

These guys just saved my bacon about a half hour ago because I did something idiotic. And let's face it: no matter how careful we are we always have a glorious absence of sound judgement. So let's take a moment and thank the authors of our choice antivirus/antimalware programs.

I currently own an MSI GE72 Apache 2QD; it is quite loud but I mainly use an extremely quiet laptop fan
>>
actually msi and asus (my personal fav) are tied for most quiet of all true gaming laptops. By true i mean all the ones with a decent cooling solution on the back.
The ultra thin shit cant cool properly so they are clocked real slow or just throttle a shit load to compensate bad thermals.

However, if you buy a msi laptop with 980 desktop or something of the kind, expect some loudiness for fans to cope with a non mobile card generating lots of heat
