Been building since 2003.

On Linux since 2018. Currently on Bazzite.

On meh 7950x X Sapphire Nitro+ 7900XTX and NVME 4.0 drive. 240hz 4k on Display Port.

Who would wanna play on cruddy console hardware lol. Based. Ironically I use a DualSense Edge.

Also have an OG and OLED Steam Deck.

I am spoiled by living near a Micro Center.

Tho the 9800X3D may launch as soon as next month for people wanting to wait.

Does Meh have good deals again? I used to check that daily but the last few years it seems like its been nothing but cheap chinese garbage.

I only go when fire sales are on.

I got my combo deal 7950x for cheap cheap when the 7800X3Ds launched. They were giving away free Ram with purchase at the time with them as well.

I once wrote a quick little scrapper that ran at midnight and would email me the listing. I think I'll have to re-write it if there's some sweet deals on hardware. Im still using my 10 year old 4k display i got for stupid cheap.

How's the dualsense running on Linux? I opted for Xbox elite purely because I thought it'd have better support for the back pads but still not over bluetooth :-(.

[–] mrvictory1@lemmy.world -1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Dualsense and DS4 have official drivers from Sony

[–] emax_gomax@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

I'm aware but last I checked the adaptive triggers and some haptic were unsupported. Was asking if that's supported now or not.

S.N. not sure why you're being downvoted.
