I’ve been debating making the switch for a long time, but after spending like a week researching Proton, Lutris etc. on Linux, I decided to try it out and nuked my entire Windows 11 drive. :)
So far, every game I threw at it works perfectly fine, including Elden Ring & Cyberpunk.
I had to spend a little time troubleshooting some small issues but it’s part of the fun!
Specs are in the neofetch, my compositor / WM is Wayfire (Wayland) :)
Are you on Nvidia and if so how do you make it not suck? I feel like preformance has gotten worse not better over the years. The exact same games with the same settings preform much worse for me on Linux.
No unfortunately I’m not buying a Radeon I need the Nvidia for work.
Yeah, guys. Can someone please share their experience with Arch and Nvidia? I’m looking to switch for quite some time now, because Windows is just a bloated confusion of an OS, but I always hear that Nvidia drivers are a piece of garbage on Linux. How true is this and can you do something about it?
It works just fine on Nvidia cards.
My dude, read the neofetch
The what? Oh the tiny ass text in the image on my phone that I didn’t see.
Nope I’m full AMD. I’m not entirely sure how NVIDIA works on Linux. I just know it doesn’t work well with Wayland. And fair enough for not buying AMD. Personally, I would do some research, try some things, but I’m really not familiar with NVIDIA card I’m afraid :(
Switched recently and using Nvidia. It’s a headache either way but I’ve had less issues with Wayland than x11.
Yeah, I’m told NVIDIA is not a very fun experience :(
