I've tried a few times in the past but always come crawling back to windows for gaming.

Last time it was terrible performance in TF2 that did it, this was after battling against fstab, drivers for my sound card and GPU. Oh and USB drives also refused to work.

Next PC build I'll give dual booting another shot. Will certainly try to get hardware that others have reported as working.

I still run Ubuntu with Kodi on my HTPC and that's usually good.
