someone else mentioned Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (‘98) — but for me — almost anything from Guy Ritchie has great pacing, humour, some twists and little nods

  • Rock’N’Rolla (‘08)
  • Sherlock Holmes (‘09 & ‘11)
  • The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (‘15)

    from all my basic investigations back then, it might be mostly about the part of their drivers that manages power delivery and consumption / power states and so on

    it might not help you at all but if you have a chance to run your setup temporarily on Cachy — I would give it a shot — there are some kernel level optimizations and tweaks done there, maybe they figured some work around for that problematic part

    no clue if my scenario is anyhow close to your situation but what sounds familiar is the freeze part

    while for me it was for a second or so, from time to time, it got really annoying

    all started after nvidia drivers got pushed to AUR — so if your GPU is newer than mine, this is where my assumption is wrong..

    checked and did everything I could, memory, drives, psu, danced naked under the full moon..

    so I switched to CachyOS with guesstimation that the person maintaining the drivers is someone from the Cachy team, they even have their own repo for them.. — following that, jumped from my ~3 yo Arch install mostly just having hopes

    and everything is fine for now..

    so, I don’t want to push you away from the distro of your choosing but, personally, I already learned for myself: until I have anything nvidia in my setup, I have more work to do and more things to check / worry about, always

    but.. like.. so — theoretically — what happens when someone looses miserably at bingo with a perfect score of 0/9? Asking for a friend.. of a friend..
