CPU: Ryzen 9 7900X3D
Mainboard: ASUS TUF GAMING X670E-PLUS WIFI
GPU: Sapphire Pulse AMD Radeon™ RX 7900 XTX Gaming OC 24GB
I had to switch from the Ryzen 7 7800X3D because there is a huge shortage where I live, and it got to the point where it was €100 more than the Ryzen 9. I know I will have a slight performance hit if the game uses the non-3D V-Cache, but I prefer that to spending almost €150 more than the MSRP.
Little side question: Will the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on the motherboard work in Arch? From what I could gather, the drivers for it should be in the latest kernel, but I’m not 100% sure.
It is just a pain in the ass to find out what network module exactly is being used in the motherboard before buying it. ASUS only says the ethernet is Realtek, and that’s about it. I just hope that those one or two online probes I saw of the board on Arch that said it worked OOTB were correct.
