Audio Technica m50x with Bluetooth. I bought them for tracking when recording guitar or just jamming music. They have a flat response so it doesn’t add lows or highs or scoop mids. The Bluetooth option works great with pop os and is easy to switch between headphones mode (stereo audio) or headset (mono sound +mic) mode. Never worked on win10 for some reason.
Same here. Great headphones. Stock pads will start to fall apart after about a year and a half depending on how sweaty you are but you can get sheepskin replacements that will last much longer after that. Also adding a ModMic works nicely with these as well.
I alternate between a PS4 controller and Switch Pro controller. Overall I think the PS4 controller is more comfortable and the touchpad on it is really convenient for using as a mouse.
PS4 controller forever. It ‘just works’ and I’m used to it after the decades. Can’t stand the PS5 controller. It feels too big like the first xbox controller.
I use a PS5 controller and it worked great right out of the box. It also has the added bonus that you can use the touchpad on it as a trackpad to control your mouse cursor.
You may as well. Proton on Steam is really effective and with GE I haven’t had a game be unplayable for a while. I don’t really care for modern loot box gambling simulator paid public alpha type games though, so YMMV.
So, because Foza Horizon 5 was one of the first games to come out for the Steam Deck I bought it for my PC thinking it would run well. Turns out it won’t run with the current Linux Nvidia drivers and I had to get a refund.
I take it you’re aware of protondb and tried the suggestions there? There’s a few people reporting recently that it works fine for them. Maybe recent updates have fixed issues
Has there been any news what the long term plans of Gamescope (Steam Deck Compositor)? They are building pretty heavily on top of xwayland, so wondering if they’ll make the switch to native Wayland game sessions at some point…
I am aware it’s Wayland based. But it’s using xwayland for literally everything by design at the moment. There is not even a way to run Wayland native applications currently.
In my experience the Flatpack version causes more issues than it fixes. Try installing it through Nobara’s package manager instead (I think Nobara uses dnf?)
I don’t use Nobara though so someone can correct me if I’m wrong.
I tried installing it through the package manager originally and it wasnt able to get past installing directx.
Funnily enough regardless of what directories it sees, a reinstall of steam allowed protonup-qt to see that ME:LE was using GE-Proton 8-5 and is currently working!
Amazing… I’ve never had smoothness like this on this machine. I am getting the same performance out of 1440p that I used to get on 1080p, and at 1080p it feels like I’m playing it on my desktop. I never thought it would be usable again, this is crazy. The old girl’s 1050 is still chugging along and getting a clean 60fps.

If I can get my main games all functional on here I might actually consider changing my desktop over as well.
