@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social KDE, my beloved. Thank you folks for offering me one of the best desktop environments for linux. Only distro I get, I always want KDE. :)

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I almost switched to KDE from XFCE because I wanted a desktop with a bit "more" but it ran like crap on my PC. Idk if it is because of KDE issues or my GTX 960 is just too old.

[-] leopold@lemmy.kde.social 2 points 2 years ago

I'd say the GTX 960 is unlikely to be the bottleneck. Plasma really does not need a recent GPU.

[-] shanesemler@metalhead.club 2 points 2 years ago

@leopold That's the thing though, I built the current PC during the pandemic and crypto craze. Everything is relatively new, except the GPU, because I couldn't afford one, but I needed a better CPU for audio recording and editing.

When was the last time you used KDE? It's been able to run on low-spec machines since KDE4 which about a decade old

@shanesemler @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social For what it's worth: I still run KDE Plasma 5 on a core 2 duo and a period correct low tier gpu, it won't blow your socks off, but it works fine, and i have no reason to believe that 6 should perform worse.

[-] Ilgaz@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I run KDE 6 on Core 2 Duo with Nvidia 9400/nouveau.
