There's a wide range of options to go against NVIDIA when using Linux:

  • Not Open Source
  • Calls home to momma (often) with more info than it strictly needs- though some would put this in the column of win for faster reponse to fixes
  • Constant game of whack a mole with drivers, versions, updates breaking things
  • Ease of use
  • WAY overpriced (let's call AMD at least overpriced though)

I decided to go AMD 6+ years ago, and gaming is consistently good, I have spent a total of zero time fucking with drivers, and appreciate that AMD invests in the community vs. just profiting from it and the bang for the buck is a nice addition.

I tell everyone I know considering a gaming rig build to just go AMD - near same performance, better pricing, better drivers and company support / policies

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
