An iGPU isn't necessarily a bad thing. If the GPU isn't working properly, at least the iGPU will let you see what the PC is doing when the GPU isn't working correctly.
Make sure your PSU can handle the total watts your parts will use. You might want to check how many watts the GPU and CPU use on average. Gold or plat is better than bronze because the PSU will be able to take a sudden spike in power without turning off. Make sure you update your motherboard, especially if you get an AMD GPU.
Edit: your PSU will handle the parts you have, might want to get silver grade PSU but bronze is fine. To update the motherboard it's just downloading the bios update and installing it via usb in the BIOS menu. Usually you just hammer F2 to get into the BIOS menu, but if it isn't that key then the splash screen should say how to get to it in one of the corners of the screen.
Lol how are they expecting to crack down on this if you can just use cell data.
Dude, some people just prefer longer form content. To each their own.
Jenkem gang where you at?
Freetube is good too
Especially when the potato laptop stops being so potato all of a sudden. It's satisfying.
Ugh, yeah. Dual booting is such a headache lol
The best thing to do is to just jump in.Pick a distro, doesn't matter which and just start using it.
For software just browse the Music category of pamac, discover, or whatever app-front you decide to use. There's some really good stuff in there.
For the most part it works really well! 90% of games on steam work without any hassle and the 10% with errors have workarounds. It's not perfect but it's definitely getting better as time goes on, especially with more anticheats having compatibility with linux than 5 years ago. When it comes to standalone games, it can be a mixed bag because sometimes it works perfectly and other times it doesn't, but launchers like lutris help get the games that don't work run decently. When it comes to emulators, they work really well, sometimes better than running them on windows, but keep in mind where you're getting them. I have less issues overall with the flatpack variants of emulators.
Leaked dark magician variant
If the motherboard supports it, an nvme ain't half bad.
