Yeah xfce is what i switched to, which was easier than i expected it to be.
No it was crashing to the login screen... randomly and frequently while playing games ... I was trying to update stuff and make tweaks i messed something up and the system didn't even recognize it had an operating system...
I looked it up... it was the grub menu that i was finally able to get to load which helped me put things back to normal...
It helped taking out my old 2 sticks of 8gb ram in my configuration with my teo 16 gb sticks which worked fine when i was using windows... none of the issues happened on windows so i was really trying to figure it out... i mean i did figure it out... but yeah...
It really did not help that i was running at 120 on an ultra wide at 5120 x 1440 or whatever the resolution is... i also tried to run it at 240 but that was a horrible idea and the start of my issues...
But yeah, its been a while so...
