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.
I have a GL533VD laptop with an i7 and GTX 1050
- Upgraded RAM to 32GB
- Upgraded storage from 7200rpm HDD to 1TB SATA SSD and 500GB NVME drive
- upgraded wireless card to an AX capable one (only use Ethernet at home anyway)
Runs Linux Mint 21.1 and usually using Steam’s Proton for games, but have used HeroicGames for my epic library.
Usually I play Rocket League with forced compatibility in steam with the only issue being in-game voice chat

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.
I’m running a AMD 5800X3D with a AMD 6900 XT on Fedora.
Stopped dual booting more than a year ago when I got VR working.
Mine’s not as insane as yours, but I’m content with it.
i7 8086k @ 5.1GHz Reference 6700xt 32GB DDR4 Louqe Raw S1Plays 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?
I think it does. D4 and Halo seem to be on par or slightly ahead of windows. Also basic tasks, web browsing, etc feel more “snappy” on the same hardware than garuda, which used the zen kernel.
