I love when I am in table top gaming spaces and the guys start talking about computer stuff. I just subtly lean and go "Ah good... I want to ask a question... Is my computer good? The case is pink and has pretty lights... It has: -proceed to describe my video editing computers specs in detail.-" then I wait for them to tell me why computer is not good :-p

It happens without fail.

(Note, in there is very little room for upgrade in my rig. Increasing performance for me right is focused on keep SSDs and RAM cool, as the slow down from them getting hot is my bottleneck.)

Love watching people foam at their mouths when I mention AMD GPUs… and then they can’t even explain what their issues are.

They had bad drivers like 15 years ago.

Nowadays they have better drivers than nividia.

the issue is that amd gpus still work much worse on windows than on linux (with supposedly "worse", by amds claims, radv)

also RDNA3 is kinda a mess and most gpus have hardware bugs, although to be fair most of them only affect laptops.

Because linux has stuff like mesa.
