Linux on an HP Prodesk 600 G1 (Ubuntu) 

Thanks. Might try that for next time.

I have no idea how Etcher became so prominent, it's the only one of the bunch that I've ever had corrupt flash.

I just burn an install DVD and connect a USB drive. I pulled one out of an old laptop.

@@MrModaman yeah, but DVD takes ages compared to USB drives.

Would you reccomend batocera for emulated games.

@@isramx2999 Absolutely. it's a Good OS for it, and works wil most every game

@@O5-XIV awesome.. 👌🔥

RTX A2000 if you can find one/afford one.

There is also a lowprofile RTX 4060 for sff.

At most probably a 6600. That's without having a huge GPU bottleneck. Obviously nothing would stop you from getting anything all the way up to a 4090 but the GPU would be held back a lot by your CPU. Plus, in your case AMD drivers have lower overhead, which will help performance in CPU bottlenecked scenarios.

@@thetechdog low profile cards are hard to find in the market in pakistan like rx 6400. i can easily get rx 550 or nvidia quadro p 620,p1000 cards are they good for 1080p gaming? or should i save some money and buy at once the good card?

​@@hamzahassan24 Of all you mentioned the P1000 seems to be the best. Though it would be better to save up for something better. The RX550 will struggle with 1080p titles unless you're playing esports. I'd say choose between the P1000, GTX 1050 or a RX560 depending on which one is cheaper. I'm not saying they're powerhouses, they might struggle with some huge bloated AAA games, but they will do better than the 550. The low profile spec is a pretty limiting factor which means you have less GPUs to choose from. Ideally you would save up for a 6400, but I do not know how expensive the market is where you live. In the situation that the 6400 is more than 2 times the price of a P1000 or RX560 or 1050, I'd probably go for one of the 3 GPUs mentioned instead. Also make sure to use upscaling like FSR in games, that will help you achieve better performance.

Snap is fine, I use it everyday and the average user wouldn't notice a thing. The server is closed source but snapd, which is running on your PC isn't. Even then Rudra proved you can create your own snap server if you wish to do so. He created his own server implementation called lol. However, there just isn't any interest from people for something like that. Sideloading snaps is also possible and someone could've created a third party app to manage and install third party snaps that way. If there was any interest, of course.

@@thetechdog I just don't see why you would use snap over flatpak though

@@jackrenders8937 Because I prefer it. I just install it and forget about it as it auto updates, and if something goes bad I can roll it back to the previous version. Plus it can do more than just desktop apps. Command line experience on flatpak also isn't very good. And on Debian based systems snapd supports reexecuting itself, which means it can update itself independently from the system's repos. I can understand the snap experience isn't as good on non Debian distros, though. Flatpak is good, don't get me wrong, but I prefer snap. And both have their own strenghts and weaknesses.

That’s a bummer.

Yep, that’s why I need windows for 😅.
