shawnsterpI get the impression that it will see a linux release sometime AFTER the 75% off sale...

jarhead_hAre you kidding? I just added an 850 watt PSU to my Amazon shopping cart and I'm pulling the trigger Friday. In August I'm buying the ASUS Crosshair 570, whatever 32GB DDR4 quad channel kit is recommended, the 12 core Ryzen 9, a PCIE4.0 1TB NVME, and a few months later I will be topping it off with one of these 5700XTs and an 1440p 32in LG Qdot monitor. This will be my first completely new rig in ten years. My first time in ten years not stuck at 1080p 60hz because I'm using a TV. My first time in ten years that I'm not using an AMD platform PC strictly because it's the only one I can afford but instead because it just plain kicks ass. And I'm upgrading from a PhenomII 960T in a socket AM3 mobo(not even AM3+), so I'm actually going to notice THE DIFFERENCE.

I MIGHT have to recycle a Samsung 840 EVO SSD until some company can get a reliable PCIE4.0 NVME out. BooHoo. II have decided to postpone upgrading to 4K until bare minimum Summer 2020 because the industry just doesn't have that ready yet, either on the GPU side or the monitor side. I haven't decided on the distro yet. I'm torn between PopOS and Fedora30, with F30 being what I'm using right now.

Going to need this machine to edit video for a Youtube channel. Also, I couldn't believe it, but a few of those trailers from E3 other than DOOM Eternal looked like they might be worth trying, especially the stuff from SquareEnix.

So the first thing that I'm going to do is install Mankind Divided, Arkham Knight, Sniper Elite 3+4, the New Wolfensteins, FFX/X-2, and anything else that I haven't installed yet due to some hardware limitation that delivers a completely subpar experience.
