  • sandro_linux sandro_linux 2 years ago 100%

    Are you planning on playing new, graphics-heavy games on Windows? Using CAD software? Rendering movie-length videos in HD? Compiling browsers from source? If it isn’t one or more of these, the build is probably overkill.

    I am playing to make some HD videos (not movie length though). Also, I might end up compiling some browsers from source (I am interesting in developing a web browser).
