Personally not a fan (don’t like the taste of teas), but many I know are. Order a basic one the first time however it says on the board, ask for a suggestion saying you never tried this before, ask any other questions you have they will generally answer, like “What do other people do with/put in this” you will either love it or feel you wasted money. Either way it will be a new experience. Oh, don’t worry about what others think of your choices (so long as you are not hurting anyone that is) you do you and enjoy, purists will just bring you down

- Comment on 7 years later, Valve's Proton has been an incredible game-changer for Linux 1 week ago:
The Foss drivers work for most things, you need the official drivers as they have the DRM (or whatever it is that gives screen priority to the headset) set correctly for VR, from what I read about setting up VR but that info could be out of date now. My next card will be amd least I’m running a ryzen 7
- Comment on 7 years later, Valve's Proton has been an incredible game-changer for Linux 1 week ago:
I don’t know about the upstream stuff but to get certain games running you had to contact them to make the game work for you, nothing like Proton today. I did support them for about a year or so as I wanted to encourage more gaming compatibility.
I never ran Arch, but did run a gauntlet of distros like RHEL5, Fedora, Fedora Core, Mandrake, Mandriva, Debian, Ubuntu, and prolly a few more I’ve forgotten. At the time, yeah, video drivers were a mess for gaming, most of the time the drivers did install for both ATI and Nvidia on my machines but they were never bleeding edge so they had a lot of time to get well working instruction sets, Nvidia is still a pain(cause the smart people can’t fix the issues Nvidia won’t) and thats the vid card I have atm 4070ti super, shoulda gone AMD instead. My only issue with linux now is the VR part of it(thankfully Proton are still working on it and there is a better desktop access program that actually lets you control the desktop), the games do not run as well as under windows so I will most likely have to retain a windows partition for the games that do not work well under linux(all of the flat games I have installed work as well as under windows and if I don’t look at the task bar I forget which os I am using), but all that glorious storage will be moving under linux by end of 10.
