Whew this was pretty accurate! I was gonna wait for the weekend, but I was feeling some type of way last night and just said "fuck it" and it was up and running within like 20 min. I've done basically nothing else tho; I had display issues (an HDMI switch I have was defaulting 1 screen to 4k (it's a 1440 screen) and 60hz (it can do 240 I think?). So I tried to force resolution on it, which worked, but frame rate wouldn't go. So I just bypassed the switch entirely, but now the 3rd monitor is always on, even when it's off. So I need to find a way to kill the input when the screen is off.

I only ever use 2 screens, Screen 1 and 2 for regular use/gaming, or screen 2 and 3 for sim racing (screen 2 is just the discord/whatever screen). But with screen 3 always being active, the cursor and windows get lost over there, so that's problem 1, sorting that out.

Problem 2 is probably more easily rectified, but I'm stubborn. Do I have to mount every partition before I use it, and does it have to show on the desktop? I have a 2tb and a 4tb SSD, and I was just going to split them evenly; 1tb for Win10 and Mint, and then 2tb each for storage. If it comes down to it, I'll just run Linux on the 4tb cause I assume it will do most of what I need, then 2tb for Win10 for the special use cases. I just had a plan and I can't get it to work now lol. Guess that's what the weekend is for!

Peripherals all did mostly work; didn't test the wheel or anything, but controller and Azeron controller worked natively, Bluetooth all seemed fine. No USB issues. Really smooth process all tings considered, outside of my personal setup issues.
