Haven't had major issues with it so far. Pretty much only occasional glitches which I assume are Vulcan shader issues.
Running Steam on Linux using Proton is a much more seamless experience than I had thought.

It's funny that when I finally got around trying an Intel Arc card, it seems like Intel might be discontinuing the whole GPU department.

Only posted a picture of my gaming/media system, but didn't describe its exact specs.

Endorfy Ventum 200 -Cheapest possible case with tempered glass side.
AsRock B850 RS Pro Wifi
Ryzen 5 7600
Arctic Freezer 36 ARGB
AsRock Intel Arc B580
G.Skill Trident Z 2x16gb
Samsung 990 Pro NVME 1Tb
Some Seasonic 750W PSU
Running Bazzite

I had originally some very ancient scrap PC parts in that Endorfy case, with the idea to soon upgrade to new hardware, still almost for a whole year ran on that old hardware. Also when I mean old, it's like, really old. Like Phenom II 925 and GTX760 old. Still, Linux Mint ran great on that, even with only 6gb of slow DDR2 ram. Youtube was good up to 1440p and bunch of modern-ish indie games ran just fine.


On my workstation I run a dual PC setup with a GMKtec Intel N97 nucbox with Linux Mint, serving as the internet machine. Having KB and mouse hooked up over a USB hub switch to share inputs with my old 2016 built system that I've pulled offline, still running win10 for the few creative softwares.

The 2016 system has been a real champ, but it was time for it to be pulled off the internet, already due to the UEFI vulnerability in its Gigabyte mobo.
It's specs for the curious:

Hadron Air mini-itx case
i5 6600
Arctic freezer i11 cooler
EVGA GTX1060 6Gb
2x8Gb Corsair ram.
Couple Sata SSDs and one very old m.2

Case has a built in SFF server rack style PSU at 500W. Really been wanting to get an upgrade to that, but the form factor is very rare at high wattages. But maybe someday if I wanted to re-use the case for a more modern build.
