How the f did you get Spotify working on there? Or am I just working on dated knowledge?

Those speakers that are on the floor. Are those 3 way PA speakers?
Do you use them to listen to music while you are sitting at the desk? If so. How do they sound with you listening that close to them

Iām lazy so iām just running Mint with the Cinnamon DE and Docky.
The simplified specs are ; AMD Threadripper 1950X, 32GB of ram and a Sappire Radeon R9 390X Tri-X ( Which i canāt get to run at full performance for some reason ).
And Spotify has actually worked quite well on the Linux distros iāve tried the last 3-4 years actually, so your knowledge is probably dated on that.
I did have some issues getting Spotify to play well with my Asus Xonar Essence STX in the beginning, but that seems to be completely sorted out now.

Wow, the similarities are uncanny.
Cot Dayum, juicy af.
Have you tried the AMD drivers?
Interesting, I will give it another go. The web player sucks most days.

Theyāre a set of JBL LX55Gās i got used for 50 bucks, pretty good if you ignore the fact that the tweeters die constantly.
They donāt sound too bad when iām sitting at the desk, but i mostly use them for background noise since iāve got a better Hi-Fi setup in the livingroom.
But when placed correctly theyāre surprisingly detailed and tight if not a bit harsh because of the titanium dome tweeters.

1 - Yeah, itās a pretty simple setup that just works as long i donāt try to put my HDDās on the dock.
2 - I do run the AMD drivers now, but if i remember correctly the card just refuses to automatically change the power states depending on load. ( Itās been a while since iāve checked though.
3 - Do that, iāve got 3 machines thatās running the same mint configuration where Spotify works like a charm, itās a million times better than the web player or even smartphone player.

Yeah, spotify has Linux builds now. Itās in the RPMFusion and negativo17 repositories for Fedora, I think debian based systems have a PPA for it.
I kicked the web player as soon as support for it was native. (well, itās electron, so ānativeā)

Itās a Lian li A71FB if i remember correctly, itās still one of the best cases iāve ever seen.
EDIT: Iām talking about design here, but cooling is amazing, a maximum of 65C under full load on both a 1950X and a overclocked R9 390X.
