I finally gave up my Nvidia 2070 Super and rejoined Team red with a 9070 XT. And it's like this is the way everything was always meant to be.

HDR works without breaking font rendering. Sleep states just work. No more random border flickering in fullscreen or borderless windows. And the fans never even spin up.

I did have to unwind a couple Nvidia workarounds to swap over successfully (like /etc/environment needed cleaning up for sddm-greeter-qt to not core dump).

No ragrets.

No regerts.

Team red 4lyfe (again).

I paid like $800+ for the 2080 Super just after the pandemic started.

Now also on the 9070 XT and 9950X3D and 64 GB of DDR5. Dream combos. Plays anything. On Linux.

Same setup, its beautiful, but AI took 32 GBs of the RAM I planned on buying so I am at 32 instead of 64

🖕 AI.

I was lucky enough to click home my setup just before the AI plague.
