The partition is there. It's just that Windows overwrites the MBR as if no other operating systems could possibly exist.

It's 2023, Linux has great UEFI support, there is no reason to be using MBR over GPT.

[-] horsey@lemm.ee 17 points 10 months ago

My system doesn't have UEFI support, so there's that.

What? How old is your motherboard?

[-] horsey@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

I have a 2nd gen I5 and a 3070. Great combo. It was my brother's old system and I hadn't had a desktop in 10 years, so I added the video card... guess I'll be upgrading sometime soon!

Jesus, do your video card's fans even come on?

[-] horsey@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

Nope. The only time the GPU gets over 40-50% is when rendering AI images.

Bruh that bottleneck must be insane

[-] horsey@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah, games are CPU bound to say the least.

[-] privateger@lemmy.plasmatrap.com 3 points 10 months ago

What

I am genuinely impressed.

Is that a 2500k by any chance?
