Is there also a Zen3 optimization?
And what exactly do you want?

By the way, what is this surreptitious advertising here in the Garuda forum? :grin:

The zen4 Repository and the chwd ROCm.

I found setting up ROCm a bit of a PITA.

hmm. “other os” is probably since my first post her before installing garuda.

I hope I have no understanding or translation problem regarding the request.

Since no developer has responded so far, the following.
We deliver all DE’s with only one kernel that is expected to work for all of them. Zen.
Exception is the LTS kernel for KDE.
If you want something different or special, you have to build it yourself or get it from somewhere else.

Well let me say this, to build v3/v4 repos we’d need another (powerful) build server. The only packages benefiting from the optimisations would be actual Chaotic-AUR packages, not the ones from our Garuda repo, and we have around 3,6k of those currently. Not all of them are suitable for optimisations however. Nevertheless, that’s a at least 1/2 to 2/3 of packages to build on top of the current ones. Unless of course, you mean optimized Arch packages. I’m not sure how much of those are around, but it’s not much less, if not more.
But besides that, it’s also an additional maintenance burden. We are quite busy with other things as of now :smiley:
