Maybe they are lol, basically every distro exploded on that old rotbox at some point in a variety of fun ways before I could get something installed except Mint. Well anything Arch based would work too, just isn't a PC that gets used often.

I installed Cachy on a GTX980 PC, but had to use nomodeset, so if you wanna install some distros that are using incompatible drivers in the live ISO give nomodeset a try.
