  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.

  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache

    X670 tier boards were some of the last to have PS/2. I got an X870 board :(

    Mine is a B350 -- I'm still running the same motherboard I used 7 years ago with my old Ryzen 1700X. Considering how much depends on the CPU these days instead of the chipset, does it even really matter if the chipset is older?

    Chipset itself doesn’t matter, it it dates the board.

    On AM4 basically every board has it. Maybe the really dire boards would skit it, but they’re skipping so much more first. Starting with early AM5 (6XX) and it actually started disappearing and now with 8XX it’s getting much less popular.

    Also how’s your B350 board holding up? My X370 board died after about 3.5 years, and my friends X370 had been acting up after about 5. Maybe the higher end chipsets are cursed? I sure hope my new board lasts because I paid a fuck ton for it.

    Just fine so far, but thanks a lot for jinxing it! 😠

    It's a Gigabyte AB350N-Gaming WiFi, which is a mini-ITX board, so having the B-series chipset was probably less about making it cheap and more about the features of fancier chipsets being wasted on a board that didn't have enough space to implement the connectors for them. Therefore, it might like slightly higher quality than some other B350 boards.
