This is the public once a month reminder to make sure your PC information is correct on your user profiles. A fresh batch of statistics is generated around the start of each month. Also a good reminder of our stats system for people who don't know about it. There's now a dedicated Forum Topic for ongoing discussions and you can view the statistics on this page.
You need to be logged in to see when you last updated your PC info!
PC Info is automatically purged if it hasn't been updated, or if you don't click the link to remain in for 5 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!
This is now going out at the start of each month, to give people a chance to talk over the stats from a fresh month where it makes a bit more sense. And gives more time to adjust anything based on feedback for the next one.
Recently a few newer GPUs were added and some incomplete GPU naming was corrected based on feedback.
Though I tri-boot Linux Mint Cinnamon, GhostBSD Xfce, and Windows 11 Pro. Linux being my main OS. Windows for things and games that aren't Linux native, and GhostBSD cause it's cool to use sometimes. Plus a Mac mini for macOS too. lol
However plebian on-board sound is a disgrace. I'm glad that my Sound Blaster AE-7 works *better* in Linux than Windows. The native Windows 11 drivers don't actually properly save your speaker setup settings, and I'm forced to run Creative's software instead. In Linux it's just "Set it, and forget it!" like the old Ronco infomercials. XD
(The plebian thing was a joke. Since tone doesn't translate over text well. 😛)

I once had my Windows installation (long time ago) give up on my SoundBlaster due to an update (I think it was Vista). Linux continued to support it. It's not always Linux that's failing on hardware support...
Right now - not really. But it will become relevant for Nvidia once nvk and refactored nouveau will become usable. It would be interesting to see how they'll start replacing the blob.
For AMD I'd say it is just irrelevant.
