@[email protected] I've found this (scroll down to #5 if it won't scroll automatically). It shows some tools that can be used to change DMI information for different Manufacturers.

This is part of the motherboard and can only be changed with specific tools from the manufacturer. Back in the days there was AMIDEDOS as a dos tool to change it in AMI Bios. You would need to find out, what tool can be used to change it in your UEFI. However, it's possible that those tools are not available to the public.

If Amazon is unable to make sure you got no fake Plus if they are the seller, how in the world would they make sure the Select is no fake?

I've used df -h and that showed only this three partitions. I've only skipped the tmpfs mounts.

Additionally, to what was already said, the size of storage is giving in Decimal (1000B based) while after formatting it is often shown in Binary (1024B based), which makes the storage look smaller, which it isn't.

And the most of the storage is coming from software stored in your home, not the OS itself. The OS only occupies around 3.3GB on the 5GB root partition:

/dev/nvme0n1p4  5.0G  3.3G  1.5G  69% /
/dev/nvme0n1p6  230M   41M  173M  19% /var
/dev/nvme0n1p8  466G  115G  351G  25% /home

They are both exactly the same, Select is just a rebrand of Amazon. Don't buy Select unless it is cheaper. And yes they work fine, have the Evo Plus 512.

SFSE works fine for me, no issues at all. Make sure you download the latest version, to be compatible with the latest Starfield update.

I've placed the dll and the exe next to the Starfield.exe in the game folder. And changed the Steam launch parameter to

bash -c 'exec "${@/Starfield.exe/sfse_loader.exe}"' -- %command%

GTAV works better with AMDVLK, as one of the very few games out there. You could give that a shot, but be aware that AMDVLK often gets selected as default, so having AMD_VULKAN_ICD=RADV in your global Env. Variables are a good idea.

And then launching GTAV with AMD_VULKAN_ICD=AMDVLK %command%.

xone needs to blacklist the xpad kernel driver, which supports all kinds of Xbox controllers, to prevent it from high jacking Xbox One controllers. You will have to install xpad-noone, which is xpad but without Xbox One support and can coexist next to xone.

I don't know if it's random, the CPU scheduler still decides what thread to use. It will have its own semantics, but I don't know on what those are based.

It's not just random, it simply does not even work. Because they set this:

+/*Preferred Core featue is supported*/
+static bool prefcore = true;

And later in the code they do the if condition wrong:

+	if (prefcore)
+		WRITE_ONCE(cpudata->highest_perf, AMD_PSTATE_PREFCORE_THRESHOLD);
+	else
+		WRITE_ONCE(cpudata->highest_perf, AMD_CPPC_HIGHEST_PERF(cap1));

if should look like this:

+	if (prefcore)
+		WRITE_ONCE(cpudata->highest_perf, AMD_CPPC_HIGHEST_PERF(cap1));
+	else
+		WRITE_ONCE(cpudata->highest_perf, AMD_PSTATE_PREFCORE_THRESHOLD);

There is probably even more wrong, looking at the code quality, but this at least makes the preferred core work.
