the other issue is I want to put Linux, Mac, and Windows on it. Getting Mac software can be difficult on a new computer, unless you have a copy of it, or an old mac to transfer from.

whoa.... knotty that is a crazy build...

My nuclear reactor came in today lol

im sorry, what?

oh shit an FX is it the 8core? and are you going to overclock it to oblivion?

You bet I am!

hell yea

you gonna try to hit 8k or better?

This 9590 is going to be under a 240mm aio

break that record?

Lol no

I don’t have LN2

I think the clock record is still held by that same exact CPU

at like 8,893 ghz or something nuts

I know it’s above 8

Yeah

I OC'd my threadripper to 4.0 and use a tank cooler to keep it cold enough

to not melt the motherboard

Nice lol

almost need a car radiator for the damn thing it is so hot

I had to do a literal cooling block and retro fit it front and back with heat tape to keep dew from forming on the outside of the cooling block and mobo

Get the Blowymatron that J2C has haha

it is so bad man

Oof

took some cleaver engineering and machining but I got it 🙂

I should shoot a picture of it sometime.

This cpu is going into my windows xp build haha

I'm not sure where to put this one but I thought this was the best place to put it unless there is some other place I can put it

linux man

Linux is the superior kernel for an OS

I just wish that more games were supported on it because it is a much better OS than windows

At least it has Super Tux Kart lol

Have you tried Steam Proton? Its steams game optimized WINE and works well with a surprising number of my game backlog. The changes that make are also usually pushed upstream to the main WINE fork.

That said I do agree with your sentiment that I wish more my games were Linux native which is why I have only bought a few games over the last few years. Of those I bought, I prefer to buy off GOG. That way I'm not locked into steam for games and actually own the game.

steam proton rules, for almost any game, other than ones with draconian anticheat that doesnt even stop cheaters

Bethesda games don’t run on Linux, at least Mx Linux

I’ve tried FO4 and skyrim, not sure if I tried new Vegas

Gonna check out this video and see how clickbait it is. Linus tends to do this to get views because he is a pile of shit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XaOeLPztN4&ab_channel=LinusTechTips

yup 100% click bait title. Fucking Linus is such a dickmuncher. I hate having to watch his videos because about 10% of the time the title is not click bait. Jesus.

I stopped watching Linus consistently years ago. Between how much click bait and the amount of cringe he adds it just wasn't worth it. That said, I do still watch the occasional video because he has the budget to do some cooler projects.

> I’ve tried FO4 and slim m skyrim, not sure if I tried new Vegas
@Kid Persona the GOG release of New Vegas has a gold rating for WINE (what Proton is a fork of) so it would probably work just fine when playing. Probably helps New Vegas wasn't made by Bethesda.
