I've switched to Linux 4-5 months back and had one specific issue that, during incredibly demanding games, my PC had a small chance to lock up entirely. I've been doing a bunch of my own research for the last few months trying various fixes and diagnoses methods and one thing kept popping up when using AI to gather data in one place. The AMD 7900XTX is the only AMD GPU to have this issue on Linux.

I'm currently benchmarking a few fixes to ensure which one works, if any, and will make an update post if I can find a solution. I am just curious to see what you guys think in the meantime while I gather more data.

Since player to player medical gameplay is sadly beyond dead, it'd be nice if once every 2 hours I can call on an AI to revive me. I'd be fine with an absurd payout too, and it could just put 2 dudes in a spawn locker near me, one medic and one guard. They revive you, and go back to the spawn locker. You pay 300k or something insane, and have to wait 2hrs to do it again.

Some quality of life in that regard that respects the players time in the same sense that refuelling beacons do would be fantastic.

CiG pls...

A lot of the info I am finding online is either outdated or conflicting with info I've found elsewhere, so I hope I can ask my questions in here where people know what's up.

I'm looking into getting an OLED soon to switch away from a VA panel I am currently using as the smear is driving me absolutely insane. It'll be used for rare extended gaming sessions. I work 12hr nights so I only get to play on the weekend, usually in 6+hr sessions so I've wanted to ask;

1 - What OLED type is "the best" in terms of picture/colour quality? I'm planning on going for 1440p, maybe curved as I've always wanted to try that, and 144+Hz refresh rate. Budget is no issue. I've heard of what feels like 10 different types from OLED to QOLED to QDOLED etc. What's even the difference?

2 - What preventative measures for Burn In can I take? I've heard that it's a rather massive issue for OLEDs, but I'm more than happy of course to do every possible thing to prevent it, especially considering the part I mentioned about extended gaming sessions once or twice a week.

3 - What type of OLED do you currently use and why that over other types? Would love to weigh peoples opinions on their current screens. What games do you play? How long are your sessions? Do you find maintaining them annoying? How is your personal experience with your screen basically.

Thank you all for your time! I look forward to reading your responses and educating myself.
