Been Manjaro for years and years. Latest update (due to my own screw-up…not the distro’s fault) shit the bed and corrupted my timeshift backups (again…my fault…not the distro)
Wasn’t too concerned because a) I keep everything on a backup drive, and b) I’m a big believer that every computer needs to be refreshed with a new install every few years anyway.
But now that that time is upon me, I got to thinking about maybe giving CachyOS a shot for the “performance improvements”. But my desktop is coming up on 9 years old (AMD A10 processor). Would it even be worth it to try Cachy in that instance, or would the performance difference between that and Manjaro be negligible on that particular processor?


i run Cachyos KDE on a 2013 Xeon e5-2667 v2 and a GTX 1070 ti. no problems. best distro I’ve used.
