  • You could definitely get a basic 5.1 setup going about 1k. I went with an onkyo tx-nr6050 and a klipsch 5.1 reference theater pack. It blows every soundbar I’ve used out of the water, I would say the q990d has the benefit of having two back speakers and the convenience of being wireless.

    I’d say if you get a return option on the soundbar setup, give it a shot. And if it doesn’t meet your expectations then return and look into a budget AVR and some speakers.



  • In case you’re not aware, and for any uninitiated that see this comment https://www.protondb.com/app/1086940 protondb is a fantastic database of Linux compatible games and crowd sourced suggestions on getting the best performance.

    Baldurs Gate 3 ran flawless for me, but everyone’s mileage may very depending on computer specs and Linux distro. Proton, and its counter part Proton-GE, work wonderfully the majority of the time. Biggest issue I run into anymore is anti cheat. Which can also be verified by https://areweanticheatyet.com/

    For reference, I’m running all AMD with hardware thats a few years old now. Fedora 41 with some tweaks like feralinteractives’ gamemode installed. You can install and use ProtonUp-QT to manage the Proton-GE versions and keep them up to date. I’ve been primarily Linux at home for a couple of years and have not missed windows. I hope more people are encouraged to try Linux and see what it has to offer
