Mine had issues with integrated graphics where the driver would crash constantly.

I’m assuming stock ax210 wifi card as well.

I had a lot of stability issues on 11th gen Intel but I was using windows. (I have switched to an amd motherboard on my laptop (no it’s not a framework))

I’d love to know what hardware you are using as well.

I think it’s more of a “this hasn’t been sitting in a lot for 2 years”. It’s funny though.

Text on GIMP absolutely blows. I have way less issues working with DDS files on PS compared to GIMP. I also used to have issues with fuzzy select but that may have been a skill issue on my part.

(I haven’t gotten a chance to work with 3.0)

Can you try using a different os? Windows or something. I don’t see why it won’t work.

My friend has a 2080 in his and he’s been able to play monster hunter wilds without much issue. It does support nvme.

(He’s on pop os)

Edit: that 6700 is a limiting factor in some titles. BeamMP really likes high core count CPUs.

GTX 745 is weird. It’s early Maxwell, not Kepler. It’s not particularly fast and as it is Maxwell, only supports fp32.

That’s the last ATX compliant xps PC. I’d swap the wifi card for something else. It has some issues. That bug was patched out afaik.

(Friend has an xps 8900 and it was a unique experience)

I’d also find a cheap gpu to put in it. There is a mount for a 92 mm fan in the front. You just have to remove some tape in the front of the PC covering a vent.

Admittedly my friend games and does dev work on it.

Also it could do with a repaste.

As far as I know you can’t upgrade the CPU on that past the 6700.

I also love bunsenlabs and used it a lot. It’s so ridiculously light. I have it running on a pentium M laptop and it’s surprisingly usable. Don’t get me wrong it’s still a 20 year old device with one cpu core, but it can do most things.

Yup thats tekko (convention) and the david Lawrence convention center.

Brb gonna go libreboot my sister’s t580 when that comes out

So that’s why everyone recommends the T480 over the T580.

The T580 doesn’t have a libreboot build.

I’ve been a fan of bunsenlabs distros. It uses debian and openbox and it’s very lightweight. I run it on a pentium M laptop and it’s quite usable. (I run it on other machines but that’s the slowest one I’ve got)
