    Maybe because Linux is known for poorer power and fan control. Imagine having issues before dust has even accumulated.

        The issue is more common in laptops and Valve’s new hardware uses a laptop mobo.

      Is that so? Funny, the entire Internet must’ve missed that. Come, teach the whole world your infallible knowledge of Linux’s problems.

        You’re making assumptions or just playing your propaganda game. You have nothing to add to the tech conversation.

          Nah, just clowning on a clown. Not a single thing you’ve said is to be taken seriously.

          Microsoft’s boot must be so incredibly tasty for you to come here and talk shit for them.
