Dual booting CachyOS and Windows 11 at this time.
I7-6700, gtx 1070, 2x8gb ddr3 1600mhz. Running Arch Linux
Thinkpad e14 w/ ryzen 5500u
Not the perfect solution, my main PC is in storage currently. The thinkpad does everything I need it to. I can play age of empires 2 and 4, company of heroes 2, doom wads and WoW private servers. In fact, its managed to have good performance in every game ive tried save for Elden Ring and some AAA games.
Ryzen 7 5800X w/ be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 cooler
ASRock X570 motherboard
32GB (16GB x 2) DDR4 RAM @ 3200MHz. Corsair LPX
EVGA FTW 3 RTX 3080 Ti (snagged used for $615!)
1TB Intel 670p SSD (Windows 11), 500GB Samsung 970 Evo SSD (Manjaro), 2TB Seagate Barracuda HDD, 3TB WD Red HDD
Corsair 750W PSU (I forget the model, and yes I know it’s a little low-powered for my GPU. It’s a holdover from when I had a 5700 XT and 3600X)
Fractal Meshify 2 Compact case.
Dual-booting Windows 11 and (as of today) Manjaro. I had been running good ole’ Linux Mint for awhile but got bored and tried something else.

Really considering ditching my GPU and use the Intel onboard and just play FOSS games on Trisquel but at present this is my setup.
- Ryzen 7 5800X
- B550-A Pro
- 16GB ddr4 2133MHz
- RTX 3050
- Pop!_OS 22.04
ryzen 5800x, radeon 6800xt, 32gb 3200mhz ddr4, EndeavourOS
Mine’s not as insane as yours, but I’m content with it.
i7 8086k @ 5.1GHz Reference 6700xt 32GB DDR4 Louqe Raw S1
Plays everything I need, and I’m dual-booting Garuda and 10.
Out of curiosity, why pick Cachy? Nothing against it, I’ve just not encountered it until this moment.
Very nice! I haved used garuda before and liked it a lot. I switched from garuda to cachy when I got the 7900xtx as I couldn’t update llvm and mesa to experimental versions without breaking a bunch of dependencies to get the gpu working. Cachy already had those optimizations built in and ended up having a lot of optimizations I liked (BORE scheduler, etc) so I have stayed on it since.
Its a newer distro, but has good support and very friendly devs.
Does the change in scheduler help out in CPU-bound games?
