Well, I’m guessing OP had the same issue as me, where DDG just didn’t deliver any usable results when searching for more technical topics. Unfortunately, no search engine is really there yet. Google just does that one thing too well. I can ditch Google for most things I use, except for search and YouTube. Those two things it does so much better than its competitors. :(

You know what, you’re right in a way. I would honestly rather spend the extra €100 and get guaranteed results, especially since I want to water-cool and get as much performance out of that bad boy. Someone else mentioned the Ryzen 9 7900X3D, but that one is almost always out of stock, and even when it isn’t, it costs almost €700. Thank you for the links, though, in case I need them.

It is just a pain in the ass to find out what network module exactly is being used in the motherboard before buying it. ASUS only says the ethernet is Realtek, and that’s about it. I just hope that those one or two online probes I saw of the board on Arch that said it worked OOTB were correct.
