Those Jonsbo cases seem so snazzy. 12 3.5” disks in that case is nuts.

Not my first go-round, and I’ve loaded Bazzite before, but I wasn’t trying to do gaming on that HTPC system so I ended up with Fedora KDE Plasma which I do like. It will require drivers for a laptop and it sounds like CachyOS is better suited for that.

Appreciate yours and the others’ input! Am going with CachyOS.

I think you’re right. I can always reload it if I am not happy with it, but I think I will be.

Would rather have more control than less. And it’s a laptop. Sounds like CachyOS is the way to go…

Side question:

Bazzite or CachyOS on a new gaming laptop?
