I have been hardware hopping recently. Changed three computers in a short span of nine months. Recently moved to my new build nicknamed, "Wolverine" powered by Core i5 10th Generation processor on top of #MSI H510i motherboard. The migration is always simple, remove drives from previous PC and insert into the new build, fix grub, and that's it but then MSI H510i motherboard brought fun together!

Commands discussed:

#UEFI #BIOS trick (applies to all Linux on similar motherboards)
. grub-install --remove /dev/sdyourdrive

#Intel wireless network chip
. add #iwlwifi config to disable ax for #Linux

Concepts discussed
Live and chroot environments

2) iwlwifi.conf for #Intel Corporation Tiger Lake #PCH CNVi #WiFi (rev 11)
options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1 uapsd_disable=0 iwlwifi.disable_11ax=true iwlwifi.disable_11ac=true

My setup:
. Core i5-10505 10th gen processor
. Geforce GTX 1650 Super 4 GB graphics
. 16 GB RAM
. Void Linux
. OBS
. Shotcut
. Impress (Libreoffice)
. And my new $30 mic (but still struggling with audio quality)

Thanks for watching!
