This is your once a month reminder to make sure your PC information is correct on your user profiles. A fresh batch of statistics is generated on the 1st of each month.
You need to be logged in to see when you last updated your PC info!
You can see the statistics any time on this page.
PC Info is automatically purged if it hasn't been updated, or if you don't click the link to remain in for 2 years. This way we prevent too much stale data and don't hold onto your data for longer than required. If this is still correct and it has been a long time since you updated, you can simply click here to continue to be included. If this isn't correct, click here to go to your User Control Panel to update it!
Some you may have missed, popular articles from the last month:
Also KDE can be used out of the box too, no tinkering needed, which is more than I can say for other DEs.
Plasma strikes me more and more as the DE in the Linux world.
Internet Speed is a good idea, have made a note to add it later.
The proprietary driver question is essentially just restating the GPU question again.
The 32-bit question is not super relevant any more, either. I'm sure that each of those 3 people using 32-bit gaming machines are doing so for a very good reason, but it's not like that number is ever going to trend upwards.
At least change the PSU, it's the single most critical component of your system (the heart, if you want), and can be carried over to your next build (even better so if you choose a modular one).
I once had a slightly undersized PSU explode on me, it took the GPU with it. And I was lucky.
Ha! Pretty sure it was two people a while back. Percentages are weird, though, so I don't know if they changed.
Half-Lifr Alyx methinks.
My PC is probably capable of running the game, but is it capable enough to run it in a way that won't give me nausea? I doubt it.
KDE was the most popular DE for quite a while in the past, being ahead of Gnome. Then Ubuntu dropped Unity for Gnome, and big influx of Ubuntu users tilted Gnome usage up quite a lot. Now things are just naturally trending to how they were.
I feel you, I am in the same situation as you.... I would love to try a shiny-moar-cores Ryzen and upgrade to 32Gb of RAM, but my i7-4790k is still doing good job...
Oh, the patience :P
