Incorrect CPU/GPU usage?
Hey, it's as the title says. I've checked, and I toggled the framerate limit to unlimited. I'm using CachyOS, drivers are Mesa 25.3.2-arch1.2, on KDE Plasma 6.5.4 with Wayland, CPU is an i5-12400f and a 9060XT 16GB, 16GB DDR4 2600MHz (I know.), and using Proton-CachyOS 10.0-20251126. The game is Arc Raiders.
There obviously has to be some bottleneck, but I don't know how to proceed to diagnose where the problem is since even btop reports the same numbers.

How do you like the Iron Fish?
Animator: we spent a good chunk of time figuring out how to make the Iron Fish feel alive on the scene, move around properly, and still be something you clearly want to see. It ended up being a pretty simple setup a few animation loops plus basic movement logic but it does the job.

I can't get Total War Warhammer 2 to work on Lutris
My distro is Cachy OS, and I'm using a cracked version of the Empress repack Dodi. I also have a dual boot with Windows, and it works fine there. The problem is that when I try to run it in Lutris, it says that Linux is not supported. I have many other cracked games working without problems; only this one is giving me this error. I even have Three Kingdoms working without issues. Does anyone have a solution?

Silly question on Steam installs
So... when I'm running Steam on Kubuntu and a game is available for Windows or SteamOS, which version does it install? (I could see it saying 'This ISN'T SteamOS!' and giving me the Windows version instead.)

Davinci resolve issue
I know its not exactly gaming but it needs wine and GPU support which are related to gaming on Linux so please dont delete this. The Linux version of davinci resolve has codec issues so I want to get the windows version using wine. It worked but it says it can't find my GPU. I have an amd GPU with all drivers installed.

Battle.Net and Xbox Anywhere
So, with the addition of first party Xbox Play Anywhere games to Battle.Net, you can finally buy games on the Xbox and (a small handful) will be available to play on Linux with no problems because of crossbuy. I've been doing it with Avowed and The Outer Worlds 2 with decent success. This was on Mint and SteamOS, mind you, but I thought I'd remind folks that this is an option! Just gotta run the Battle.Net launcher through Steam with Proton Experimental, and then any game you have available will just work!

Minor question: is it appropriate to share pictures of PCs on Linux subreddits just for fun?
I know ow that these subreddits are meant to talk about the OS. But with how much help communities like this one and Bazzite (my distro of choice) have been to me, I'm wondering if I can showcase my setups just for fun with my fellow Linuxers.

OldUnreal's Linux Installers for Unreal and Unreal Tournament
Both are available for free, with Epic Games' blessing. OldUnreal provides community patches for the old games that make them run on newer systems.
The current build of Unreal has a slight bug on Wayland which prevents the game from starting unless it is started from a terminal with the -log flag.

Screen tearing when playing with two screens while a video is playing on the second screen
Screen tearing when playing with two monitors while a video is playing on the second monitor. Everything works fine on Windows. I tried syncing the refresh rate and resolution, but it didn't help. Enabling vertical sync didn't help either. Affect all games.
Monitor 1: 1080p 60Hz (HDMI) Monitor 2: 1440p 165Hz (DP)

Portproton doesn't launch the game: Little window appears and it crashes
I use arch and hyprland, JaKoolIt dotfiles. Videocard - rtx 4060, nvidia-open drivers. I installed Far Cry 5 from torrent, like exe file and many others, that means i didn't installed from steam, and I don't launch it from steam. I tried a lot of versions - GE-Proton 10-26 and 9-27, Proton-LG 10-25, WineLG 10-20, and tried to change api (vulkan version), but didn't try WineD3D opengl. Game only launched when I used wine, but game doesn't see gamepad - xbox 360 gamepad, connected with OTG-receiver. With other versions of proton little window with Far Cry 5 Intro was appearing and game was crashing, window was closing.
Also, I wanted to play other game - Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy. It just doesn't launch, I tried wine and different versions of PortProton. Nothing was changed.

[PSA] PoE2 is once again playable on true native wayland leading to way faster load times
Was holding off posting it here, because it might have been a placebo, but it works now.
My original post on /r/PathOfExile2 :
This is a nerdy PSA!
As you all know GE-Proton implemented the unofficial wayland patches like a year or two year ago.
Running the poe engine in truely native wayland without xwayland always worked on poe1 and still does to this day.
It wasn't working on poe2 launch because of a core bug in the poe2 vulkan engine, but got patched a week later by GGG and until 0.3 launch hit we could play with "PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1" and enjoy our near native performance.
0.3 hit and this broke. When enabling "PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1" and no compatible shaders where found ( due to a kernel or gpu driver update ) it would work for one run and then crash on rerun.
Otherwise it would just load into a black screen playing the title music that never ended.
As of this small line here in a recent hotfix :
Fixed a Vulkan client crash.
Its once again possible to play true wayland on poe2.
Proof : here
While this wont fix any of the massive fps problems poe2 has, it will help IMMENSELY with load times. After your initial shader cache build ( during load times ) you will instantly feel it.
Thank you whoever did that on GGG. I bow before you.
May you all have a peaceful and unharmed time!

Steam Deck OLED / 2025 Was A Great Gaming Year / Top 21 of Games Released in 2025 / Part 2
CS2 on Linux.
I switched to Fedora 43 with KDE Plasma two weeks ago, and it's been a great experience, but I've noticed that CS2, specifically, runs considerably better on Windows. I've seen reports saying this too, but I've also seen people saying it runs better on Linux. What do you think?
My specs:
-Ryzen 5 3600
-Radeon RX 6650 XT
-16gb DDR4 3000mhz
Benchmark on Linux using Vulkan
Benchmark on Windows using Vulkan

nobara kde vs cachyos for gaming + plex
hey, I'm stuck between nobara (kde) and cachyos as my main linux
I only play singleplayer/offline games, no multiplayer. gaming is priority but I also run plex and I want it to be stable and not randomly break after updates. normal use too: browser/email, office docs, youtube/movies. don't care about hdr.
which one would you pick and why? which one has better official/community support? any annoying issues with updates, amd gpu stuff, or plex on either? also I want flatpaks like flatseal/bottles/lutris without pain.
parts:
cpu: ryzen 7 9800x3d
mobo: asrock x870e nova wifi
gpu: sapphire nitro+ rx 7900 xtx 24gb
ram: 64gb ddr5-6000 cl30
storage: 2x 1tb nvme (samsung 990 pro + kingston nv3)
