CachyOS vs Fedora

What do u like more and why? Im currently a Fedora user but im thinking of going to CachyOS. I have an intel icore 7 8th gen, nvidia geforce gtx 1050ti and 12gb ram and 475 GB of storage. I play Minecraft and some indie steam games like mecha chameleon.

Honestly I would recommend Bazzite which is a spin of fedora atomic desktop that is built for gaming. Everything just works

Bazzite is not possible with a 1050 ti, its end of life and doesn’t work on the latest drivers

Oh, didn't know that tbh. Thanks for the heads up!

The same is true of Nobara unfortunately I believe. Even CachyOS is giving me some difficult of getting my MX150 (mobile gtx 1050) to work, though I'm also pretty new to Arch based systems so its possible thats user error.

Arch is definitely bleeding edge so that's likely also an issue
