  • I have no experience with PCSX2, but maybe something in its configuration causes your issues. Reinstalling or updating it will not make a difference. If you really want to start over, close the application, remove the directory ~/.config/PCSX2 and restart the application. You will have to run through the initial wizard again. If it still won’t work, some other issue is the culprit and you would likely need to share logs. Alternatively, if the application prints logging to stdout, you could run the application from a terminal (f.e. by launching pcsx2-qt) and see if anything is printed there when it shuts down.


  • I have both Proton Unlimited and Mailbox. I prefer keeping my Mailbox account for mail, calendar and contacts. With Proton, I’d have to use their apps or some bridge, whereas Mailbox can be used with any app. I also have multiple domains connected with Mailbox and use plenty of aliases, so I don’t really see why Proton would be better in that regard.

    I don’t have any suggestions to add, but as someone who subscribes to both, I was simply wondering what Mailbox lacks compared to Proton in your opinion.






  • 23.1 already has ray tracing support, although it doesn’t work on all titles. With 23.2 a notable example that should have rt support is Cyberpunk 2077. The rt performance should also increase by a lot, and even more in 23.3.

    That said, I also think I will turn it on, say the frame rates are too low and switch it off again. And that’s with a 7900 XTX. What I have seen of ray tracing I do not consider all that impressive. Maybe experiencing it myself will change my mind, but the Radeon 7000 series is not powerful enough in that department I think. And considering I want this card to last 4ish years, I probably won’t see ray tracing on my machine any time soon, unless FRS 3 proves to be surprisingly good.




  • I’ve had a 7000-series card since December and haven’t experienced any driver issues. Using KDE with Wayland and two monitors. My only complaint is the power use when I go over 60Hz, but maybe it has to do with one of my monitors. This is what I see happening:

    • Both at 60Hz: 25W
    • Using only display A at 120Hz: 25W
    • Using only display B at 120Hz: 90W
    • Both at 120Hz: 90W

    I was hoping some driver update would fix this but by now I’ve given up. As for gaming experience, I have zero complaints. Big titles I played were Cyberpunk 2077, Remnant 2 and Elden Ring and they performed great.
