Thinking about getting onto wife’s Steam account, but right now I’m pretty stuck on sandbox games. What are you enjoying right now?

Heads up for those who want a game controller that works well on Linux: Target.com has the DualSense for $50 USD right now....

Good morning lemmites, I just installed nobara on my aging gaming laptop, hoping to get a few more years out of it and potentially hook it up as a capture device for my desktop. Most of the process has been seamless but there are a few outliers. First being that I had an issue getting the version of Steam working off of the...

Looking for some good headphones to use for listening to music, and gaming. Could do wireless.. but I feel like USB or 3.5 mm connection would be best. Seems like a lot of the big brands have stuff locked into their windows apps....

Just wondering what you did. I am using Pop_os....

Patch 2 seems to have drastically slowed down the Vulkan Renderer. Before I was able to get 80-110FPS in the Druid Grove, but now I am only getting 50fps. DX11 seems fine though, but I prefer using Vulkan since I am on Linux....

The reason keeping me from switching over to Linux is because I have a low end laptop GPU (AMD R5 M300 series) and every drop of OC is vital to me, I used MSI Afterburner on Windows and I don’t know what to use on linux that actually work and user friendly if possible

I am a grumpy old man that is/was pissed that we aren’t getting a “real” Baldurs Gate 3, but as it gets close to release I am sadly getting excited about it....

SF6 runs like a charm on the steam deck so I figured it would run fine on my desktop with Pop_OS. It doesn’t seem to launch at all, nothing happens when I click the launch button....

I’ve been gaming on Kubuntu for over 2 years now but recently have been getting interested in Garuda. I’ve booted into the live Dragonized Gaming iso and was really impressed with the out of the box gaming-centric setup....

Hey friends. I have been using Linux exclusively for about 3 weeks. I’ve been amazed at how well gaming works out of the box with Steam and proton....

What’s the best way to evaluate your gpu performance on a Linux? I am running a 4060 with the Nvidia 535 driver. Should I use glmark? What is a good score?

I’ve found that you can play Rust on servers on linux. The only caveat is that the server has to either have EAC turned off or have their own AC, which on official servers is very rare. But its a lot more common on cracked servers (ArabArust for example). So if you really want to play Rust, you can. Just search cracked rust...

Ahoy - I am as green as green can be when it comes to using any Linux OS, so please forgive any ignorance, I am learning as I go, I only installed this yesterday and I have zero Linux experience....

I was an avid single player gamer a long long time ago (15+ years) and the recent Quake II remaster sparked the nostalgia in me and now I want start playing all my favorite classic games (StarCraft, Diablo II, Quake 2 and 3, Battlefield 2, etc.) again....

I have an older i7 circa 2009, 16 gigs ram, and a gtx1060 with an ssd for os. I’m thinking either Pop!_Os or Nobara? Idea’s, what do yall think?

Half serious question because I’ve been browsing this for a while, but, is this /c/ really about Linux gaming? Most if not every post is about Steam, Proton, Windows games, and Windows game companies. Feels more like /c/windowsgamingonlinux to me, which I’m not contra to but, I feel it deprives some naming space (good names...

Hi guys! Brand new PC…And I’m trying to install its brand new 7800XT. I’ve chosen KDE Neon, as it was my previous OS, and I’ve grown to like it. I’d like to stick with it if possible…I’m writing this preamble, because when I try to run amdgpu-install from the AMD downloads page, all I get is:...

Hi guys....

I am currently running GTA V from Heroic with Proton GE Latest. I have Fsync, Esync and Gamemode enabled. When it runs on windows, GTA V gets around 115 FPS and GTA O gets around 60-70 whilst on Linux GTA V gets around 80 FPS and GTA O gets a mere 30 FPS....

i tried to run genshin impact on my linux mint pc, and the installation went fine but when i went over to run it, it crashed with code 17152 here’s the full log: pastebin.com/twqzPTyXwine version: 8.0.2
