Starfield lag spikes at a steady rhythm. What could be causing this?
It's very annoying and disruptive to the gameplay. I'm on Fedora Workstation, fully updated, 5800x and 6700xt, 32gb 3600. No other games have this problem.

I quit my corporate job two years ago to make games, and I'm releasing my first game next week! It's a Windows 95 automation game where you make PowerPoint factories (with Linux support)
I am aware that I am posting a Windows themed game on a Linux sub (don't ban me 🤞)
It's called Factory 95 and it's launching on the 22nd of April!

Planning to move to Linux: how reliable is Wine/Proton for unsupported games?
I’m considering switching from Windows to Linux but I have a specific concern and need clear input.
My main use case includes gaming (not just Steam titles) and development (AI/ML, coding). I’m aware Linux is strong for development, but I’m unsure about the gaming side outside officially supported platforms.
Key questions:
How reliable is running non-official / cracked Windows games on Linux using tools like Wine or Proton?
Do most of these games actually work, or is compatibility too inconsistent to rely on?
Is performance significantly worse compared to Windows in such cases?
For someone who still depends on this type of gaming, is switching fully to Linux practical, or is dual boot the only realistic setup?
System context:
RTX 3050 laptop GPU
Large existing data (can’t fully wipe or migrate easily)
Looking for real-world experience, not theoretical answers.

nothing's working as it should
i have recently switched from windows which id previously used all my life to linux, first mint, then hopped to cachy which im using right now. everything else apart from gaming is amazing. the system is fast and responsive, the customization is so fun, cachy's performance (outside of games) is great. no bloat, i love being able to install and configure everythign from the terminal. but then... then's the sad part. ive been trying for almost a week now to get *any* game to work properly (through steam). i mainly play overwatch and nightreign; OW takes 500 years to boot up and doesnt go beyond 80fps. freezes and lags every 30 seconds or less, borderline unplayable. with nightreign, theres a noticable fps improvement, from around 30 on windows to hitting the native 60fps cap, but controller inputs are glitchy, causing me to attack when im not pressing the attack button, etc. also freezes and stutters *constantly*. im absolutely torn. i would love to keep working with linux, but i've been hitting wall after wall, problem after problem when trying to configure gaming (which is my biggest hobby). help greately appreciated. you can ask for more hardware info in the comments if needed.

Per device mouse acceleration?
I have a gyro controller (Alpakka Controller) that outputs as mouse and I want to apply custom mouse acceleration curve to it, while keeping my normal mouse's input raw. On Windows I could use apps like Raw Accel or Custom Curve Pro to set it up, how can I do it on Windows? Unfortunately, the controller itself doesn't have built in options for acceleration, so I have to rely on the software solutions.

Hello everyone,
One question is plaguing me for a long time, since there is a new VRAM "fix" for amd on kde (cachyOS)
I wanted to ask if my w5700 would perform better on linux then my rtx2080?
Would be glad if someone could answer that!

Wow loading makes my computer freeze
Hello everyone,
I switched to linux mint one month ago and I installed wow through Faugus launcher.
It works really great except sometimes when I change zone the loading reach 60% and the complete system starts to freeze. When I move my mouse I can see the cursor moving at less than 1 fps..
The only way I found to fix it is to restart the computer...
I tried to switch from Ge-proton to cachy-os proton but the issue remains the same. I also tried to found someone with the same issue online but I didn't find anything....
Someone can help me with this ?

Is the steam performance overlay bugged or is it the driver?
I am running Debian on a Ryzen 7 5800X paired with a GTX 1650 and 16GB of Ram. It works well after fussing with the drivers and getting steam installed, but I am trying to benchmark vs windows and I noticed something off, the performance overlay isn't showing GPU utilization. Obviously it's working since It'm getting 60FPS at 1080p in high settings on Persona 3 Reload, and CPU utilization is only 14%, and the 5800X isn't an APU.

Pragmata Ray Tracing on RNDA4/AMD on Linux
Not sure who needs to hear this, but if you have an AMD card and are confused about why you can't turn ray tracing on in Pragmata, you have to add
%command% /WineDetectionEnabled:False to your launch args. No path tracing, but at least you can toggle RT on which does make things look a lot better.
