CachyOS is solid, it effectively put a stop to my distro-hopping days(years). Been daily driving on my desktop and laptop for well over a year now, no complaints. Desktop: RTX 4080 / 9800x3d
Edit: Felt I should mention I haven’t come across any games (old/new/big/small) that I can’t run. To be fair, though, I don’t tend to play any competitive online FPS.
Yep, out of all the “gaming-friendly” distros I’ve tried (Bazzite, Nobara, Garuda, Pop!_OS, Mint, etc) Cachy has had the best performance and stability by far, and the least amount of weird quirks or bugs. Genuinely, one of the best distro experiences I’ve had in a long time.
I do work with linux in a professional capacity every day and have been using Arch on and off for over 15 years, though. My perspective is likely a bit different than the average gamer. That said, I don’t find myself having to dig into things very much/often with Cachy, unless of course I want to. :p
