Wish me luck. I'm a little unsure if it'll work well. I have an ancient GPU (Nvidia GTX 970) and hope it'll be compatable.

Processor		AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Six-Core (12 CPUs) Processor 3.20 GHz
Installed RAM		32.0 GB
Graphics Card		NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (4 GB) (actually 3.5GB due to hardware defect)
BaseBoard Manufacturer	ASRock
BaseBoard Product	AB350 Pro4

This system is getting old; nearly a decade here. Pretty soon I have to start thinking about upgrading. At a minimum, I should try and upgrade the video card when I can.

Fuck this case is dusty as hell... I'm never building a full tower again I think. I want my next PC to fit into a Mini-ITX form factor I think.

I tried going a live boot but that wasn't happening.

So I opened up the system to take out the windows nvme so I could install a test deployment on my spare ssd in the case.
