Or both :)

Yeah, so far my favourite distro for this is Bazzite, still allowed a lot of customization and is well optimised for gaming.

Good to know - thanks. I, too, prefer to customize mine in my own way.

I will try this tonight when i get home, thanks for the suggestions :)

It does eventually boot, but it takes a solid 5 min before it decides to, and not sure how i can troubleshoot it...

Neat tips thanks!

Do you also struggle with extremely long boot times? Whenever I reboot or start the computer up, I am stuck with watching the ROG Asus logo for approx 5 whole minutes... Even if I try to press delete to enter bios, it still takes that long for it to enter bios. However, this doesn't always happen, sometimes it decides to be "quick about it". I've just made sure I'm running the latest bios version, and have set all values back to default values. So not sure what it can be. It only started this year, too, after acquiring the AMD GPU...

I have the same motherboard! I also rock the AMD 6700 XT graphics card, which I acquired this year, so it would defo leave a sour taste in my mouth if this was the guilty puzzlepiece in the my stack.

Whilst trying to install other .iso's late last night i kept seeing the ACPI errors over and over again, which has me thinking this is a problem with my hardware setup, as you suggested by others. Journalctl command results in this if thats to any help; https://0x0.st/Xt2e.txt

and this is lsmod;

 shell

    
lunix@fedora:~$ lsmod | grep amdgpu

Thanks for the nice reply!

Definitely very interesting! Thanks for sharing. Was thinking about trying CachyOS too.

I ended up booting up bazzite, as I had to have a working computer for today. But ran the commands to see what it resulted in, but not sure what to make of the logs. However when trying to install other .iso's late last night i kept seeing the ACPI errors over and over again, which has me thinking this is a problem with my hardware setup, as you suggested. I have the AMD RX 6700 X card.

Hmmm might be, I'm also experiencing very long boot times. Normally have to wait 3-6min while watching the Asus ROG logo before the system decides to boot up. Might just be easier to look for a new mobo than to troubleshoot something I know so little about to be honest.

Yeah it is, thanks anyway 👍

Thanks for the reply! I will investigate further, and try to share the logs if I figure out a smart way to do it.

Happy to hear!

Good to know, appreciate the heads up :)

Thanks for the info :)

This looks hella clean!
