If you want a company that makes their own PSU's look at Super Flower and Silverstone.

IIRC FSP also makes their own PSU's. Got a Hydro G Pro 1000W juicing my system and I'm pretty happy with it.

All 3 of those companies stick their own logos on chinkshit PSU's.

I'm fairly certain Seasonic is an OEM, and Fractal sticks their badge on it. Corsair used to rebadge Seasonic, but not anymore, and they're fucking awful now.

You even post a link to a PSU tier list and plenty of Seasonic and Fractal PSUs are A tier.

I can't find any SU/Silverstone PSUs on my area fuck.

I run a Seasonic Focus GX-750 in my primary computer, a Fractal Ion+ Platinum 660 in my second computer, and a Seasonic G-650 in my server. I trust all of them wholeheartedly.

The G-650 is 11 years old now, it has been running a server 24/7 for its entire life, and I don't think I'll change it for a few more years.

TL;DR buy anything on the A tier from https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/ and you're good.

I'm considering a Fractal Ion Platinum 850W or a Corsair RM850X SHIFT once I give my PSU to a friend.

Is anyone able to test the performance. I've yet to find a video that compares native performance to fsr4 on linux.

There aren't any at the moment because its a relatively recent development that requires MESA git. However, preliminary reports say the performance isn't that great at the moment because its emulating FP16 over FP8.

that adds up i saw a video where fsr3 got 88fps, xess got 70, and fsr 4 got 60. but I'm curious if there is any gain from native. Maybe that's why they wont port it over officially.
 
unironically speculating that amd at some point will come up with fucking AM4+ the very same way they did for other legacy processor formats

They would have done that years before now, I think it's too late to bother by now. They release "new" SKUs like the Ryzen 7 5705G but that's all they need to do.

There has been talk of an AM5+, but nothing solid:
AMD may have a new platform for upcoming Ryzen CPUs — AM5+ socket and Granite Ridge CPUs listed in a microcode extraction tool
NO – AMD is not preparing to switch to new AM5+ socket (rumors over)

AM5 isn't even that expensive to get onto anymore, and unlike AM4, almost everything comes with integrated graphics (aside from a few SKUs like the 7500F).

With AM6, I'll be interested to see if they increase the physical size of the socket, or the memory bus width. Probably not the latter but we can hope (for mega APUs). I think it would be good for AM6 and Epyc to consume the Threadripper HEDT lineup from both ends. Just make 32+ core Ryzens and Halo APUs on AM6, and cheaper options for Epyc (like Siena on SP6).
 
Will the pea method be fine for my AM5 CPU? Been looking into that and can't seem to find a good answer. Probably overthinking it.

Yep.
The cross method is really only necessary for rectangular CPUs, such as EPYCs or Intels.

The truth is that even without any thermal paste at all, your CPU is probably going to be fine as long as the cooler is making good contact. Thermal paste will give you more performance but not as much as you might expect.

That being said, I did the X for my 7950X.

How are Intel GPUs on linux? Was thinking about getting one to replace my gtx 1050 as a transcoding workhorse
