I want the same #gaming #performance as #CachyOS but I stay on #Arch. CachyOS is basically Arch with preconfigured tweaks. I build the same setup myself, so I know what every single #screw does and why it is there. No #ballast I do not understand, full #control. If something breaks, I know exactly where to look.
My #plan:
1. #CachyOS #repo and #BORE #kernel
2. #sysctl tweaks
3. #udev #scheduler rules
4. #amdpstate, preferred core
5. split lock off
6. #ananicy
7. #gamemode
8. #GEProton
9. #mesagit
10. #RADV transfer queue
11. #GPU performance level
12. #EXPO in the #BIOSFunny detail: the #CachyOS #wiki itself has a #guide for Arch users who do not want to switch but want full control.
