Applied comprehensive corrections from Discord community (DeathStalker, Astrocast, and others) to fix inaccuracies, remove outdated procedures, and improve readability. CRITICAL SAFETY FIXES: - IOMMU: Changed from "optional" to "MUST disable" across all docs - Removed dangerous `amd_iommu=on` kernel parameter (causes crashes) - Added danger warnings that IOMMU is broken on BC-250 BIOS & VRAM FIXES: - Fixed BIOS flashing guide: removed fake "ZIP file" references - Added link to actual flasher utility (separate from ROM download) - Removed made-up Windows utility steps, added real ASRock method - Removed AMIBCP/Smokeless section (not used, P5.00_clv has all unlocked) - VRAM docs: reduced verbosity by 40%, emphasized 512MB is DYNAMIC - Added ZRAM conflict warning (crashes in RDR2 with dynamic VRAM) COOLING & HARDWARE: - Removed impractical fin cutting/screwing instructions - Removed J4003 header references (not for normal users) - Added tower cooler downside (must cool VRAMs separately) - Static pressure already correct at 6.9 mm H2O LINUX DISTRIBUTION UPDATES: - Fedora: Removed outdated setup script, Mesa 25.1 now in repos - Fedora: nomodeset no longer needed on 42/43 with working kernels - Bazzite: Removed "on steroids" section (patch included by default) - CachyOS: Simplified from custom ISO to standard installation - Updated KDE vs GNOME: GNOME recommended for stability (6 changes) - SteamOS/Ubuntu: Already added in previous commit (verified) GOVERNOR & DRIVERS: - Prioritized COPR installation over building from source - Added @exotic-soc/oberon-governor and filippor/bazzite repos - Display adapters: Now recommend PASSIVE (audio works) over active IMPOSSIBLE FEATURES REMOVED: - Fortnite: Clarified it cannot run (Easy Anti-Cheat) - ROCm training: Corrected to "experimental/limited" (doesn't work) Desktop Environment: GNOME now recommended over KDE for stability (KDE had Qt RDSEED bug, now fixed but GNOME more tested) Files modified: 14 Community credits: DeathStalker, Astrocast, legodude
