Building a pc and need input of whether on not this is the best bang for the buck I can get. Budget is from 1.2k - 1.35k euro.

I'm using only one specific site in my country because it's the most reliable one here.

Link to the build

The site I'm using is Futura-IT which has 10% on anything you buy.

Only thing I need here is the ryzen 5 7600x because I need it for rpcs3 emulation, so the fact that the cpu is stronger than the gpu in the list is intended because of the kind of stuff I do and play. Otherwise I wanna play games at 1080p 144hz but willing to play games at 60fps with high settings.

Hello, I'm thinking of building a gaming pc next month and as such I'm looking good cpu + gpu combo.

The total cost of the PC* I could prob accept up to 1.5k euro to 1.7k as total maximum I can't go over.

Please use german amazon for prices cause I live in eu country and german amazon is cheapest when it comes to hardware prices/import fees for me.

I'm only accepting nvidia gpu as an option because O have bad experiences with amd gpu's both in hardware and drivers and don't mind spending a bit more on nvidia to get similar performance as some 40% less expensive amd card.

The card doesn't need to be running every game at ultra setting 160 fps 1080p, should be able to run most games at 60 fps atleast medium setting for next year or two.

I was looking into 4060ti 16 gb version which is about 700 euro, mostly because I'm thinking about trying local llm's also.

As for the cpu both intel and amd are fine but would prefer amd because I heard of some problems with intel cpu in never gens.

NOTE: used market here for gpu's is almost non existent where I live, so it isn't an option.

So today I enabled the hdr setting in windows 11 and everything seemed fine.

Tried playing genshin and it crashed right away.

After disabling hdr I started getting weird artifacting so I restarted and everything worked fine.

I reloaded my gpu undervolting settings in radeon software (rx 6750xt ) and they worked fine.

Went ahead and upgraded the driver and rebooted. Now the undervolt settings crash on stress test and any game I'm trying to play.

Is the windows 11 hdr setting actually killing my gpu????

EDIT: Ended up changing the undervolt from -120 to -100mV and that seems ti have stopped the crashing. Can a driver really affect undervolting that much?

EDIT2: Actually it stopped crashing at -75 undervolt.

Today I undervolted my brother's amd rx 6950xt by 120mv ( at 125mv a game we tested would crash at 100% usage and max power draw ).

Also made his fan curve more agressive cause by default it never wen't over 55% fan speed which is just stupid.

This in total lowered his temps across in mist games from average 80C to 55-60C and lowered power draw on average by 20W.

It also allowed him to play supraland at max settings with gpu not going over 70C instead of lowest setting 80C on average.

So yeah, if you never tried or bothered with undervolting try it and post your results. Or if you did it before post your story and results.

So I'm migrating stuff from my old server to a new provider and only thing left is email.

The problem is I used luke smith's emailwiz script ( the script and setup itself isn't a problem ) because it uses system users for managing users with dovecot and friends to setup a mail server.

So now I'm looking for a new email server to selfhost (preferably docker/podman) that in the future I can easilly migrate.Would also love if somebody has a reccomendation on how I could backuo and import emails from the old server.

NOTE: I use caddy as webserver, so the server should have a simple way on getting ssl certs, or abikity to easilly make use if caddy one's.

Hello, I have been a linux user for close to 6 years now and I have changed my distro quite a bit ( especially in first few months of starting out linux ).

I have wen't from ubuntu, xubuntu, fedora, peppermint, arch, artix, ... in first few years. After that I have settled on arch for close to 2 years. After that long time on arch I decided to try out and test interesting distro's for at minimum 6 months every year ( and if I didn't like them I would go to arch back ) until I found something else I could main because I have found a few issues with arch that I could accept but would become annoying from time to time.

Across the two year's I started this yourney I have used gentoo ( used it for a year but then the lack of a proper retroarch package made me change the distro, plus the 3+ hours compile times when updating specific software ( looking at you qt-webengine and firefox ) ), then I choose to try out nixos which I used for 3/4 months before all that main maintainer debacle and splitting of the team I wen't back to arch because I didn't wan't a distro I'm using falling appart on me.

And here I am now, another year is soon to start and I'm searching for another different type of a distro to try out that does something differently compared to most distros, even willing to try out nixos again if the situation has stabilized now.

My only hard requirement is that the distro need's to be able to play games ( as in steam and gog ).

Edit: just to clarify, I'm chaning distro's on a yearly basis for a learning experience and fun.

Hello, I got 20 euro to spend on the autunm sale, so wanted to ask what games you would recommend to get.

Any kind of game work's of any kind of game work's up ti 20 euro.

You can reccommend one amazing game for 20 euro, or multiple small addctivie indie titles for up to 20 euro, anything goes.

Looking forward to check out your recommendations.

Hello, I'm interested into some good casula shooter's that work on linux. My only requirement is that they shouldn't EVER have to use an external launcher like ea ( have bf3 on steam and the ea launcher just doesn't wanna work ).

I played games like splitgate, halo infinite and battlebit remastered

Hello, I have recently been seeing a boom in people using ansible for automating setting up vps's, services, ...

Is it worth it to learn ansible to do also automate the way I setup everything, or is a bash script good enough ( I know some bash scripting but ansible seems like it could be more worth the time to learn )?

Hello, today I would like to announce the creation of a mattermost group "Casual Selfhosters".

I created it because I feel like there is a need for real time chat at times when it comes to helping someone with selfhosting and some aspects of communication generally work better in real time chat, than in a forum like setting like what lemmy does.

The server is hosted on a dedicated hetzner machine.

I would love for the mattermost group to grow alongside this lemmy community and be a good addition in helping other people get into selfhosting.

Hoping for good feedback to make the community even better and hope people will find it usefull if they are ever in need of real time chat to help someone across the globe.

Hello, I would like to hear your opinions about a good selfhosted messenger like discord.

To list exactly what I mean by that is:

• No need for federation ( only will be used by friends )
• E2EE
• Support for direct messages
• Support for discord like server management by which I mean the ability to set rooms and topics for such rooms.

From what I know, this seems to be more similar to slack alternative's but wanted to hear opinions of others.

I have been thinking about either matrix, mattermost, rocket.chat or revolt chat.

I already have a XMPP server, but setting up encryption and client's has turned away quite a few people I would like to get onto this platform.

EDIT: As pointed by other people E2EE isn't needed for my usecase if no federation.

Hello, I have a mumble server running as a docker container.

I'm using lego to generate let's encrypt certificates using dns challenge as an unprivileged user.

My problem is that I need to restart the mumble server so that it can reload the ssl certificate, which means restarting the docker container.

Is there any way to do this withuot adding the user to docker group, since there are security issues with that group where it's easy to escalate to a root user.

I thought about maybe a user level systemd service could be able to do it, but wan't to hear your opinions?

EDIT: I mention mumble specifically here, but this can apply to any server that requires manual reload of ssl keys, like postfix for example. I'm also not againd the idea of converting to something like kubernetes or even podman ( which would be harder cause of file permissions on all my binds ) if they can allow for woking on the container without root privileges.
