99% depends on your budget too. I have a 7900XTX and it has been smooth on wayland

Oh, makes sense. It thought Valve would already be working with some manufacurers based on this interview from November

Shame that all these companies choose win11 over SteamOS

on ExpressVPN many servers are blocked but if you pick a smaller country like Luxembourg it can work

Same here. this is upsetting :/ Back to firefox I guess

Great news! is there a chance this will eventually lead to screen tearing protocol getting implemented?

I am also dual booting because of game compability and Virtual Reality support.

I think once wine-wayland gets fully merged we will see a clear uplift in performance, at least on wayland.

This very much.

The reason I switched was the forced updates that kept slowing down my computer when I needed the juice and network. Also there was a constant pressure to “upgrade” to win11.

OP, If you don’t have many major grievances with windows, it might not be worth switching. Nothing stopping you from taking a look in case you might like it. I have enjoyed my experience so far, despite some small issues.

Nobara on my desktop, Pop_os! on my laptop. As soon as the new COSMIC DE is ready I will switch to Pop on my desktop as well.

Vampire Survivors?

Seems pretty okay. I managed to get League of legends/TFT running perfectly fine (though the launcher is a bit stuttery)

CSGO I noticed runs WAY smoother on Linux. Maybe becausw it uses Vulkan which is a lot more modern than dx9. But the aim just feels… smoother despite the same FPS?

edit: on Nobara and a AMD GPU
