Well, I experimented with Linux Mint for a bit. I learned a few things, like how this distro is not ideal if you want a simple experience out of the box. Maybe I'll some day find one more to my tastes. Also, do not attempt to get Nvidia drivers for your Linux machine from the official Nvidia site. I had to learn the hard way this is not how things work.

I also discovered something about my computer though. For some reason, both the PSU and my graphics card are prone to overheating. I'm starting to thinl this has something to do with me sometimes losing video signal in Windows too.

Can you guys suggest anything about the overheating issue? My PSU is not exactly top tier, my graphics card is a Gigabyte RTX 5060, and bandwith for the card is limited to PCI-e 3.0. Also, my monitor is 4K.
