Looking to make the switch
Looking to make the switch
Hi everyone, looking to make the switch from windows. I'm reasonably technically apt but not a programmer by any means. I've been doing some homework on which distro I would like to use and pop_os kinda feels like the right direction. I'm running an Nvidia 3060TI on a Ryzen 5600 chip set on an Asus tuf motherboard. Any other distros I should be looking at, and does somebody have a link for a comprehensive guide to installing? I'm looking to continue running windows on the side until such a time as I am comfortable enough with linux that I don't need it.
You're viewing a single thread.
I have been running Pop!_OS for a couple months (Linux in general), it's been rock solid! I had it running dual booted with Windows for about 1.5 months and had no issues. Nvidia drivers also just work really well.
I've been looking around to see if the grass is greener on the other side with other distros, but I keep coming back to Pop!_OS. I'm also super excited about their new Desktop Environment (DE) coming later this year.
EDIT: System76 (the people who make Pop) have some really good articles/docs on installing and using Pop - installing Pop!_OS, TechHut Video on dual booting & piped version
