CachyOS

EN Texte en anglais Pas encore d'article dans ta langue : extrait en anglais.

CachyOS is a rolling release Linux distribution based on Arch Linux that focuses on performance optimizations for modern x86-64 hardware, including gaming workloads. It rebuilds its kernel and core packages with CPU-architecture-specific compiler optimizations while retaining Arch's Pacman package manager and compatibility with the Arch User Repository (AUR). The project provides both a graphical installer built on Calamares and a command-line installer, a choice of more than a dozen desktop environments and window managers, and a dedicated "Handheld Edition" aimed at devices such as the Steam Deck, ASUS ROG Ally, and Lenovo Legion Go. Since 2024, CachyOS has attracted increased attention in the Linux enthusiast press for its rapid growth in popularity, including reaching the top spot in DistroWatch's page-hit ranking in 2025 and, in March 2026, overtook Arch Linux as the distribution with the most user-submitted compatibility reports on ProtonDB.
