  • Like Hawke said it seems like the graphics card or driver crashing. Very hard to troubleshoot, especially when it’s random. Bazzite probably already has very recent drivers, there’s this post on the bad website listing some things to try. This stuff can lead to superstitious thinking, with people changing something, rebooting to have it work fine for a while then they post that change as if it fixed it.

    God speed.


  • Your motherboard wouldn’t happen to be an AsRock? There’s been reports of ASRock mobos in particular causing problems with 9000 series AMD chips, especially the X3D. Mate of mine running windows has been having it crash especially when idle at desktop.

    I’m not familiar with a green Linux equivalent to the BSOD. Is it completely green? In that case it may be a graphics problem…


  • I’ve been using my Sennheiser HD 598 s for over 10 years. I’d recommend anything the same shape/size: being large over ears means it doesn’t touch or squeeze your ears at all. Being open backed and velvet padded stop my ears getting hot and sweaty. Being wired saves weight, prevents lag/quality concerns and isn’t too big a deal in a stationary gaming situation.

    I do need to use an external mic for chatting, which is not ideal if you’re gonna be always in voice chats when gaming. Dedicated gaming headsets tend to not sound as good for the same price, but can’t deny the convenience.

    Here is a recent rundown of recommendations by audiophile youtubers for gaming headphones might be worth watching. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIwgVzSiZ68
