  • Hopefully I can find the molex cables that came with my PSU, I know I have them somewhere.

    Thanks for the tip about grounding, was not aware of that. I'll either be getting a second PSU or upgrading to one of those Super Flower ones, depending on how the costs work out. I just remembered my GPU doesn't need a power cable, so that should open up even more ports.

    Thanks for all the advice!

  • I was asking just about power, but those bays will come in handy as I haven't been able to get a new case yet, thanks for sharing!

    A second power supply does currently seem like the best option. In my research I found Super Flower's modular power supplies, which can apparently power a ton of drives

    For the molex to SATA splitters, did you need to get one specifically wired for your PSU?

  • GTK 4 was released in 2020, they also dropped the plus from the name in 2019. GTK 4 is a big update and would be a pretty massive amount of work to switch to. I don't know when, if ever, XFCE will switch to it.

  • GTK 4 released 9 years after GTK 3, so it'll be quite some time before GTK 5. If Wayland doesn't have better accessibility than X11 at that point it'd be time to give up on it as a project, and maybe desktop Linux as a whole.

  • Hey, thanks to your suggestion I got 8 SAS drives and a PCI-e SAS expansion card, but I've realized there's something I didn't really consider. How are you powering your drives? After my upgrade, my server will contain 12 drives, which my PSU unfortunately does not provide enough ports for. Is simply upgrading it the best option in your opinion?

  • Idk why you're so downvoted, I agree. I understand the reasoning, but not including proprietary codecs by default is too much of a hassle for new users. I still appreciate fedora, but I wouldn't recommend it. Bazzite is the best distro for a gamer that is new to Linux.

  • Proton is still largely wine. Proton is just wine with some custom patches (which usually make their way to wine) and other software like DXVK and vkd3d bundled in. This change will bring the same benefits to Proton as it does to wine, once proton is updated to support it.

  • Ntsync is much more capable than fsync, which was the replacement for esync. Many games that benefitted from esync will benefit much more from ntsync. Esync also breaks many games, which ntsync seemingly does not.

    Also, the majority of people running games on Wine are doing so with a version of wine that includes fsync. Lutris, Bottles, and Heroic all support versions of wine with these patches.
