Pdo you have it on an SSD
BWhat packages are layered
Pelden ring has some pretty shit asset streaming already
Tsame question to @Mr Joao1010
BForza 5 doesn't work well on a hard drive for me on linux
Pepic
Tbut it is bazzite
BI install it on an ssd
Tyup
Pnothing modern will tbh
Pand even then
Pif your SSD is cacheless or has shitty cache it might as well be a hard drive
KSame question to @Mr Joao1010
Tits only with elden ring, and i have not been able to even find my issue online
Ppaging dr joao
Tlike the issues i see people have arent my issue
GIt's uncommon, but there are fast performing DRAM-less SSDs now
Mwell is a HDD
Tthats the issue
GThat explains it lol
KYeah that's your problem
BYep
Pwhere do i get a machine with CXL
KSee: steam deck
GYep, good example
Pit's okayish
Pi see people complaining about write blocking
Treading a reddit thread now about pros and cons
M
GI have a Lexar NM790 SSD in my desktop that's completely DRAM-less, but performs very well
BSo that's why I have worse performance when downloading games, huh
Pthe cache shouldn't be necessary over the coming decade though it's something we have solved at a platform level
Pit's just not really there yet compared to a real SSD
BIrrelevant now, since you mentioned HDD. Sorry man.
Pdepends
Psteam's very picky
Tyea its why the system requirements on the installation guide mentions SSD
Tostree will take hours to update on a HDD
Plike there's differences just between what filesystems are best because of the cache problem, this is really noticeable across different brands of SD card it seems
Tgot me to check if any of mine are dramless
Tthey arent
Psome people have their steam download speed completely shat on using CoW on cacheless / slow drives
GIt's very dependent on the hardware really
Pyeah cache doesn't automatically = good either
Pif it's slow or inadequate then it's worthless
Ti do know that steams download speed being shit isnt always due to the drive
GWhat matters is if a drive is fast and has benchmarks you're happy with
Tive had very shit speeds and intermittent buffering a year ago
BAnd this is why Fedora Silverblue is NOT an old pc-reviving distro
Phow fucking old is your PC
