@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I almost switched to KDE from XFCE because I wanted a desktop with a bit "more" but it ran like crap on my PC. Idk if it is because of KDE issues or my GTX 960 is just too old.
I'd say the GTX 960 is unlikely to be the bottleneck. Plasma really does not need a recent GPU.
@leopold That's the thing though, I built the current PC during the pandemic and crypto craze. Everything is relatively new, except the GPU, because I couldn't afford one, but I needed a better CPU for audio recording and editing.
do you use an SSD? from my experience, that can make a really big difference with Plasma
that is definitely not the case. that would make the plasma wayland session essentially unusable on nvidia, even though many users have reported it working fine.
@be @leopold That might be it as I use the proprietary drivers. I’ll just stick to XFCE.
@be @leopold I'll probably just stick with XFCE for now.
