Mac User Builds Linux Gaming PC
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июн 2024
- I attempt to build my first PC in 20 years. Last time I built a PC it was a slugfest between Intel's Pentium III and AMD's Athlon, and I went team red way back then.
Let's see if I can put together over $3,000 in parts and build a great PC for gaming and creative work-but more importantly: how fast will it compile the Linux kernel?

Thanks for watching the live stream-longest one I've ever done! I re-installed Ubuntu a few times and have had success! Check out my blog post here: www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2022/getting-rx-6700-xt-work-gaming-on-linux
I also added timestamps/chapters for the entire video, and updated the description with more links. What else do you want me to test and benchmark with this PC? Want me to explore how the RGB RAM works more?
For sure! We want the openRGB video with a Raspberry Py Pico controlling the lights!!!
Thanks for the stream, - most actually dont show the bios setting because most dont have capture cards wich makes it impossible to capture it with good quality. That also creates a lot of trouble that self-builder have to solve by trying and much reading forums^^ I want to make a similar journey but i dont know if i do it only in german or in english aswell. lets see
Adding timestamps to a livestream... :D
Truly doing gods work
@@popcorny007 Ain't nobody got time to watch all 3 hours!
You did a Linus Tech Tips, too smart for your own good. Should have picked the latest Mint and headed straight to Unigine and downloaded Heaven from there to test your GPU. You already had a working AMD GPU driver and did not need to mess with it. The reason Phorex did not work is because the GPU is not enabled for packages launched from the terminal. There is a command to enable that, something about giving permission for the GPU to the user.
37:30 Ubuntu isn't actually the gaming favorite distro anymore, even Valve doesn't want to get near canonical products anymore. As a surprise to no one, it's the rolling release distros that are gaining more traction because of the bleeding edge drivers and stuff.
Canonical are now even denying security updates unless you go Premium. Worse than Windows
Great stream. Linux gaming has been a joy for me, it’s nice to finally catch up with all the games I missed as a Mac guy.
lmao same
Hey Mac people, I stopped using windows after getting frustrated with Windows 11. It was a clean install but a lot of games were buggy. I went to KDE Neon (I recommend latte dock for that Mac feel) and my entire steam library runs great, often with higher fps. A few games with EAC don't work in multiplayer. I hate fanboyism and I understand the appeal of Mac OS even though I have never owned one. I just think it is cool we can all meet in the FOSS world and have such a viable alternative to all the proprietary BS!
Edit: Life is much easier in Linux with an AMD GPU, my 6800x in Neon gets almost the same performance as my friends 3080 in Windows.
02:06:53 - "RGB. The kids'll like it."
Please don't put 2.5V through the RAM... It will fry it... The current spec uses about half the voltage.
The voltages have dropped way down since the 286, 386 and 486 days... The CPU uses about 1.2V stock and 1.4V with a mild OC (I would be surprised if the CPU doesn't reach 4Ghz on a mild overclock)
Really great video, Jeff. I've really enjoyed watching your channel and projects grow so much over the last couple of years. This was a great stream that was, honestly, just wonderful to have on in the background while knocking out work. Keep up the good work and absolutely go ahead and keep collaborating with Microcenter and others. They see your talent and why not take advantage of it? Good stuff!
Nice to see you building a pc for your self. loved all the testing and hope you get it all up and going should do new with each new linux Os. but all in all great video Mate.
Thanks for the lovely long stream! It was nice to sit with you through the whole process :)
Great choice on the setup. I have some of the same parts in my "server" box. Notably the mobo has been solid.
Great video Jeff! I really enjoyed watching you built this pc and hearing your thoughts/opinions during the process. Great work! I also found the OS issues funny and relatable.
At least I learned to use a more bleeding edge release on desktop!
@@JeffGeerlingThat’s true! I had used Ubuntu recently to get some codec information for my hackintosh project. Since Microsoft said my thinkpad X1 Carbon was not eligible for Windows 11 I decided to give MacOS a try, so far it’s been great, I have never owned a Mac but I’m considering getting one. I heard a lot about about Xcode being a good IDE having finally tried it I really like it. Would you ever consider turning that new PC into a hackintosh?
3 hours vamping while building a PC. Mercy, you’re brave. Check popOS from System 76. Very polished Ubuntu derivative oriented toward use by creative professionals in the arts, science, and engineering.
Install ventoy on your USB flash drive. then drop in all the different live distributions' iso files. you can then try all the distros and decide which one is worth installing, all from the 1 usb stick.
sounds REALLY interesting
Jeff building a PC answering all the questions we never knew we wanted to ask. I've been building PCs since I was 12 and I learned so much today.
I hate ratcheting screwdrivers too, also the ones that store all the bits in the handle.
Yay there's at least two of us!
Hi, great too see I'm not the only one that has problems
Crazy you're the guy who made drupal vm, I knew geerlingguy was eerily familiar. =)
Just to echo what others have said - I recently installed Fedora 35 KDE on an x570 + 3600x with no problems - noticeably more solidly reliable compared to Ubuntu and Ubuntu based distros I've tried in recent months. Having mostly used Macs since 91 all my machines are also hackintoshes but it's fun to multiboot OS's - Fedora KDE kinda feels solid in a similar way to OSX by which I mean it's more invisible so I can just run the apps I need to use. YMMV of course
Hi @Jeff
Maybe the hardware drivers in GPU firmware have changed cuz I think you were playing with this GPU to run it on Pi.
The most GPUs I know of, like RTX2/3xxx, they do support firmware upgrade over PCIe Instead of any custom manufacturer jigs.
:Watches OS install process: He's trolling us... right? The guy configures raspi's all day... he has to know how to do this... right?
Thats the same board I have, I like it, the RGB on it syncs with the AMD Prism cooler I have installed :)
The nice thing about Ubuntu is that there is official support for PC, Raspberry Pi, and ARM64 (i.e. Apple Silicon virtual machines). Consistency can save a lot of sysadmin time.
I really like 👍🏼 how you do things and how honest and humble you are, being yourself an expert in so many Tech stuff. Congrats on the pc build. Just don’t use Ubuntu! Canonical has abandoned Ubuntu desktop leaving its users orphaned. Use Arch-based distro or PoP OS!
Something you might want to try - Pick up the Debian Bullseye nonfree usb image and see how easy it is to get the whole system up and running with that. In case you didn't want to mess up your Ubuntu drive, you could switch the motherboard bios to boot from the second SSD.
I mean, Jeff has quite a lot of Debian experience too it would seem like a natural choice.
I need some genius friends like this gentleman. This is just so much fun.
Just to note: Compiling the kernel faster will be possible without any hardware changes as soon as either one humongous pull request by Ingo Molnar ("Fast Kernel Headers") gets merged into mainline (ca. 2,200 commits - yes, that's over 2 thousand), or if most of the kernel code has moved over to Rust (or potentially both).
I suggest using fedora kiniote actually, because when steam officially releases steam os 3, you already know how to install stuff and get it working already.
The `do-release-upgrade` command upgrades in-place from Ubuntu 20.04 to Ubuntu 21.10 -- I think it is not a good idea to upgrade in-place, and would recommend some form of fresh install.
(A rant about do-release-upgrade: The do-release-upgrade script is the equivalent of a full body, "new-internal-organs-to-old-skeleton" transplant... It switches the package repos to the ones for the new release, re-configures a few files and runs some release transition sub-scripts, and then installs the packages in-place for the new distro release... right over top of the old ones. I consider `do-release-upgrade` extremely janky. I've never had a proper working system after doing that, although admittedly the last time I tried that was probably like 8 years ago. I think the concept is too nuts. No idea why anyone acts like it's a viable option. Canonical should just abandon do-release-upgrade.)
My preferred alternative: You can actually manually reinstall over the same partition using the installer GUI (custom install --> manual partitioning and re-use the / ("root") partition WITHOUT FORMATTING), and it will nuke everything but your home folder (preserves only the "/home" dir), which results in, for pretty much all intents and purposes, a fresh OS, without having to nuke your home folder (which keeps most of your user config intact via various .dotfiles in ~/. Also keeps your web browser user profiles intact, so you're not starting from scratch getting the browser set up the way you like.).
The irony: What is treated as highly dangerous (custom install over your existing root partition) results in a working system 100% of the time, in my experience, whereas I have a 0% success rate with do-release-upgrade.
(Granted, my preferred "reinstall fresh Ubuntu OS over existing partition" method is legit dangerous for data loss, if you aren't thinking clearly and format your existing root partition, then yeah, you just told the installer to delete all your precious files. And it's just a checkbox, basically. So yeah, DANGEROUS. But also leaves your OS usable. Worth it, IMO. Just never do it distracted, because formatting everything you care about is kid of a big deal.)
So, I dislike the messaging that points people to `do-release-upgrade` and away from reinstalling over the same partition. Furthermore, I feel there should be a dedicated "refresh" mode in the installer that does this WITHOUT presenting an option to format. (Looks like Pop!_OS just added this to the latest version of their installer! Woo!)
P.S. If you want to catch the distro-hopping bug, you should try Pop!_OS, or Ubuntu daily ISO with Gnome 42, for a nicer desktop experience than Ubuntu 20.04, IMO. For a more adventurous distro-hopping experience, I second trying Manjaro to dip a toe into Arch, and then uh... Like a GhostBSD LiveUSB image to try a BSD distro, lol.
For Windows converts, or Snap haters, Linux Mint is more of a "it just works, even for people who mostly just know how to use Windows" distro than even Ubuntu. But the package base is Ubuntu LTS. So it really is "just Ubuntu" in terns of almost every internet guide or software package you might want to use on it. And Snaps are disabled by default. They have to maintain their own Chromium and Firefox packages, but they do it so users don't need to understand or use Snap to have an Ubuntu-like experience.
Thanks for that Livestream/Video and the work with different Cameras/Angles etc! Ever good when a Mac User comes out of his comfort zone. ;P
Ubuntu is good but Unity is counter intuitive. it's also really refreshing when a pc is simply put together for use as the next high-end system for show purposes *yawn*.
especially when setting up many developers should look at why it does not run as they imagine ;)
I really understand why people like Mac and the Apple ecosystem so much. The video shows again what is wrong with the PC. Especially with the Software. It is always expected that the users have to deal with something, whereas the programmers could simply implement it better.
That's also what i can't tolerate when the next linux interface is advertised with "and now even better for windows switchers", which doesn't offer a hint of the same functionality or does anything better in usability. don't get me wrong. i love linux but headless ;) KDE is the closest thing I can think of as an alternative.
I don't think it will ever be the 'year of the Linux desktop', until fundamental issues like having 50 different 'desktops' to choose from are solved (probably not ever). But yeah, for anything headless, Linux rules the roost.
Ubuntu dropped Unity a while ago. They run Gnome Shell with a basic theme + dash-to-dock extension (and other extensions, too).
@@JeffGeerling For the masses for sure there will be but not as long as no one really back to intuitive operation and many more ways to achieve things with the mouse instead of the terminal. Would you recommend linux to a mac user? I have the same problem mainly with PC gamers. I hope the Steam Deck will finally change it.
Gnome on Ubuntu 20.04, Alt+F1 then type the name of the app you want is the keyboard shortcut.
Also, ctrl+shift+t gives you a new tab in your terminal window.
Alt+pgUp and Alt+pgDn let you cycle through terminal windows.
Ctrl+w to close the tab.
Ctrl+d to exit out one level inside the session, and eventually the whole session.
If you install the driver through apt after adding the repo to your sources, the drivers will be included when you upgrade. Make sure to get the dkms package as well, since that will update your drivers when the kernel upgrades.
Postfix/mail/mailx is typically used for sending messages sent to 'root'. The one I see the most is cron messages.
I think if you leave the power supply shield in place, then running the cables through is easier.
I think Unigine Heaven would have worked properly if launched from the desktop. I don't think you need to install GPU drivers. The AMD driver download is only really if you want OpenCL.
@52:45 many Bothans died to bring you this driver...
Check out the Fractal Define series cases for the kinds of things you want in a case.
Thanks for trying Ubuntu instead of another "experimental distribution flavor of the week". Honestly in 30 years of Linux and 40 years of BSDish I consider Ubuntu the most straight forward Distribution for Beginners and Professionals alike. Everybody without a REALLY GOOD PLAN and REALLY GOOD REASON should not use anything else. I am just feed up with newbish people installing PopOS Beta and Puppy Linux and Arch Bleeding Branchj without a good reason and even less experience.
(Btw as I said, I have some 40 years of Unix/Linux/Posix experience and even I just put Ubuntu on a lot of machines just for the sake of "get it going with as little effort as possible. Because I have installed THOUSANDS of systems in my live and don't need to prove to myself I can use experimental crap anymore)
@34:16 do/don't some manufacturers still claim "Warranty void if sticker removed" on SSDs?
The dkms thing need to disable secure boot in bios to be able to build the kernel module during the booting.
Try contacting Jason from the Linux For Everyone channel. He has a lot of experience with Radeon drivers/optimization on Linux.
18:20 I see you've been watching LTT
Watching you choose AppImage hurt a bit, but the OpenRGB site wasn't making it clear that the Debian Bullseye .debs also work with Ubuntu. I'll add a note to the downloads section of the site to clarify this.
36:00 Nothing a sharpie can't fix
Sugestions: VENTOY for the install pendrive and MANJARO KDE for Linux gaming
So this was like the greatest video ever. Lmfao. Hilarious how you’re guarded against everyone jumping on you about your keyboard like you’re afraid to be called a casual gamer. And of course, your internalized shame about buying RGB ram…. That looked like it killed you a little inside. xD We love you Jeff.
As a Linux user. The only real reason I care about the motherboard is it's iommu groups. Sure there are hacky patches. But I'd much prefer them without that. Also a little bit more security for vm work
You forgot to mention ETA Prime for PC building channels.
1:20:00 If you need a flashlight to see there isn't enough light to video...
My first computer was a leading edge model D
Jeff, install both VGA cables from PSU! if your card has 2 sockets is for a reason!
The corsair RM650x features a single 12V rail design, it doesn't matter for the PSU if you use one or two sockets for the GPU (assuming the same power drawn) and he did connect both the 6+2 and the 6 pin PICe connectors to the GPU.
Honestly it's all about the current through the wires; I didn't look up the wire thickness on that PCIe cable, but they are probably like 16 or 18AWG (they're noticeably thicker than other wires included with the PSU). Should be able to handle the 12V power for that card unless maybe it's crazy-overclocked.
Ok Jeff your next project has to be a Hackintosh PC.
You know you don't install drivers on Linux right? The amdgpu driver is available in the kernel and Ubuntu preinstalls the amdgpu X11 things by default, for the most part, for AMD graphics cards it's just plug and go
Here's a curious thought: Is there a case that has a monitor rather than a clear panel on the front side (of the case)?
yes
run top - press 1 - get all CPUs/cores - press t - get charts or whatever, press t again another variant of charts
Pop OS is pretty much Ubuntu at the base and hardware compatiblity wise, but with much better UI and snap-less (trash-less) and uses flatpaks. That's why you should use Pop OS instead of Ubuntu.
Also if you have AMD GPU and don't need OpenCL it's best to stick with the preinstalled MESA drivers, they are the best, don't bother installing the special ones from the AMD site. AMD says MESA ones are best.

One of the problems with Ubuntu, especially the LTS, is found when using "cutting edge" hardware. Sometimes the drivers aren't backported to the older kernels (right now running 5.16 on my Arch computer, and the video shows 5.13), but other times you need to download "hardware enablement" packages. I haven't watched the whole video, but maybe that information gives a good point of reference!
Your assumptions are partially wrong here.
Where you are wrong: Your Ubuntu is not running a vanilla Linux Kernel. It is running an Ubuntu-modified Kernel. The Ubuntu-Kernel is using a lot of additional patches and backports, even for small updates.
Where you are right: Using an HWE-Kernel solves sometimes resolves some problems. The easiest way is to just download a milestone-release of Ubuntu and install that one, e.g. Ubuntu 20.04.4 has a newer HWE than 20.04.1, able to use newer/more hardware. Though at least in my 30 years of Linux experience most times an older HWE installs fine, maybe lacking here and there a bit on VERY new hardware but you are still able to upgrade to a newer HWE anytime later without pain by following the usual HOWTOs and Google.

At 1:17:04, I prefer base 2 prefixes for data. So much so that I wrote my own Python function to convert an integer number of bytes to a float truncated to a desired number of decimal places (no rounding here).
God Damned RGB!!! 😂😂😂
Personally I find anything else then vanilla Debian cumbersome on Debian based distros,
As for my day to day use Arch has never given me any problems in 3 years.
I'll wait till prices drop before I upgrade my graphics card. For now I'll just play lego games. or maybe portal 2

JEFF pleas turn the fan ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Do you mean the AMD CPU cooler fan?
Ubuntu is actually the most annoying thing to run for gaming as everything is extremely outdated. Arch based distros tend to be much easier to run in the long term.
all you have to do is installing ubuntu 21.10 ... it can use RX 6xxx out of the box ... ubuntu 20.04 lts is to old ;)
i myself use kubuntu 21.10 with a rx 6600xt and a amd 5950x
Literally yesterday, I've installed a RX 6700 XT on my Ubuntu 20.04.4 PC ... given how many issues you had (and I did as well), the drivers in an archive file simply don't work with Ubuntu 20.04.4.
Here goes what worked for me:
Went to www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/amd-radeon-6000-series/amd-radeon-6700-series/amd-radeon-rx-6700-xt and downloaded the .deb package for "Radeon™ Software for Linux® installer version 21.50 for Ubuntu 20.04.4" (release notes: www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-amdgpu-unified-linux-21-50)
Installed the said package, it made several packages available by adding stuff to the apt sources. I think I just run amdgpu-install in the console after that and it did the job.
I think with the current Ubuntu kernel version there are still some issues with OpenCL ... But for Vulkan and OpenGL it seems to work fine.
Thanks! I will attempt again (I'm re-installing Ubuntu 20.04 as I type...)
@@JeffGeerling Oh ... I notice after re-watching the video, you've installed the 20.50 instead of the 21.50, can't blame you, I did the exact same thing (since the 6700XT initial driver support was in the 20.50 it shows first in google search as it is written in the release notes).
In my case I was upgrading from a GTX 950 GPU and though I had some config or package causing issues... but no, simply the wrong driver, 21.50 did the job.
@@Jose-Sousa I tried again with 21.50 on a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 LTS install, and got another failure (blog post on it to come). I did a fresh install of 21.10, and that seemed to work. Getting 300 fps in Heaven test, and 60 fps lock in Halo MCC via Steam. I'd call that success!
AMD Drivers for linux are a pain and the documentation is horrible especially for anything that is not within the last couple years
@@JeffGeerling Good to know you got it to work ... 20.04.4 LTS (5.13.0-30 kernel) + AMD RX 6700 XT seems to be simply cursed, thank you for the feedback, I might just upgrade to avoid issues in the future...
Take a shot every time he says "I'm a Mac User"
Install amdgpu 21.50 😐
↑ This ... and not 20.50 ... Google first result is not always the best result...
@@Jose-Sousa D'oh! Will do. Testing it after lunch :)
Tried it, and still didn't work on a fresh 20.04 install (blog post with more details to come). I re-installed again with 21.10 and everything seems to work now. (insert shrug ascii art)
@@JeffGeerling also try Fedora and Mint. Fedora use pipewire for Sound I think, which you would like. Ubuntu as desktop really is very hmmm.
i laughed every time someone said to install windows
In my oppinion the Mac is the absolute opposite of the Pi spirit.
A golden cage putting their visitors on a leash in the most drastic way.
Btw I absolutely hate apples blatant lies and white washing.
Also changing several core APIs like SEVEN times in 20 years is... absurd. I mean it is easier to port some software to an Amiga dating back 30 years than to an Mac nowadays.
The PC on the other hand is inbetween and much closer to the open Pi approach than to the closed Mac approach. Give a standard PC an open Firmware instead of UEFI, GPIO-pins, preinstalled Linux and you have an x86-Pi-Like.
On the other hand I get grumpy about the curent direction of the PC market. Too much RGB and Bling Bling, too little Bang Bang and much too much Big Bucks. Try getting a compact, robust, discrete looking workhorse able to cool 500W silently with room for 3x5.25 externally, 5x3.5 internally. Baaad luck. Honestly most modern PC cases give me eye cancer.
If you've recompiled the linux kernel more than once you don't count as a Mac user anymore 😂
what a pain to watch xD. Just go with fedora and install flatpak, 1000 times better than ubuntu
I beg you. I use automatic translation when watching videos. So don't turn off subtitles
whoof. that was painful to watch. thanks.

#linusdroptips
make arch linux videos for the next six weeks
Heh!
Linux would be fine if they could ever agree on one way to do something...consistently...with working results....
I'm in my 50s, so my thoughts on RGB lighting are the same as you described: Seems a little silly, but for a few bucks, why not. Now that it's in, I'm a little embarrassed to say that I secretly love it. No changing rainbows though, just RG&B (though I might go to pastels when easter comes around)
You are a mac person? You just fell from my pedestal....
I'd say give up and install Windows, but that'd make for a more boring stream instead of watching you try to get Ubuntu working properly with the GPU for an hour.
Heh, in this case, yeah.
3 hours??? Sheesh I can build one in under a hour easy.....
A i missed it
You could’ve installed windows and the drivers would’ve been ready, windows is best used for gaming, you might need Radeon software sometimes but it’s still easier than in Ubuntu
Each time you make Apple propaganda a kitten dies in a horrible way!
lmao you're hardly an average mac user
Never mind! :)
I don't think a Linux PC is actually a 'Gaming PC' anyway. And I'm sure those grapes are way too sour too.
LOL 🤣 You’re a truly a Mac user because Linux is not for gaming 🤣 Good luck and have fun 🤞
First comment!
It was streamed, not the first 🤣
Mac user out of his element. And slow.
linux or gaming pick one :p
AMD? Really? You're already off to a terrible start. You should have bought an Intel Alderlake 12600k for $250. But I'll stop here as anything I say does't matter. I am always dumbfounded by guys who spend more for less which is clearly the case here.
Jeff gets confused really quick... probably why this is his only means of income
Boring boring
