not that easy if you play games unfortunately

I used to agree with this statement, but I'm no longer that sure.

I built a new PC a week ago, installed windows first then Linux. The idea was that I needed Windows for gaming.

Thought I'd try proton + Steam, regardless, just to see how it stacks up.

No performance difference. HDR works through gamescope. The window manager of the DE isn't insane and I can alt tab around my OS without problem.

Pretty good stuff. Still have windows for work and Valorant, but otherwise I play all my games on Linux these days. The only part that's lacking, in my opinion, is hot plugging controllers. Annoying that that doesn't work.

What graphics and processor are you using?

[-] derin@lemmy.beru.co 2 points 2 months ago

For graphics an RX 7900 XTX, and for CPU a Ryzen 9 7900X.
