Hesitant about the switch because of my humble pc specs
Not sure if that is the right flair to use so, I'm sorry if it isn't.
I've been thinking about switching to Linux for a bit and I feel like right now I'm seriously considering it more than ever before. But one of the main reasons as to why I still feel a hint of hesitation is that my PC isn't all that good in terms of specs;(referenced below) and thus I fear that whatever little performance I used to get on Windows would be significantly reduced if I'm using a software like Proton which I still don't fully understand what it really is. I've never touched a Linux OS before and I am seriously looking forward to this experience (I'm going for Mint), but I am still reluctant due to a very few worries, one of which is the issue I just proposed. So is it really going to be hard switching from Windows to Linux regarding gaming? And will I actually end up losing a significant amount of frames?
PC Specs:
Ryzen 5 3400G
RX580 8GB
2x8GB RAM

Gaming on Linux doesn't fully utilize the CPU
So, I tried gaming on Linux, but the performance feels kinda meh. Is it because the CPU is like being held back? When I play on Windows, the CPU hits 100% usage no problem, but on Linux, it’s not going all out. Any ideas why?

Ghost of Tsushima starts to frequently freeze after around 10 minutes of play
Title. Game starts to freeze up for like 1-2 seconds very often. Tried a bunch of things and some launch options from ProtonDB but the issue still persists.

CS2 VAC Problem today, anyone else?
Of course i am not using any third party cheating software. Anyways, i cannot go into premiere, it will tell me that files dont have the correct signature (VAC).
Verifying the integrity of the game files did not fix it. I am currently reinstalling the game.
Anyone else, or is it a local "me-problem" ?`
EDIT: Completely reinstalling fixed it... weird.

Totally unable to get MIO: Memories In Orbit working. Where do I learn what steps to try past different Proton versions? (also, the FAQ is broken.)
This question may or may not be answered in the FaQ. I don't know, seeing as it's currently unusable.
EDIT: Tried it again with Proton Experimental to double check that I had listed the version right, and it just works now?! Okay.
So far: I am on the latest version of Linux Mint, and have tried Proton Experimental through Proton 7, as well as ProtonGE. On Proton Experimental, it loads to the main menu, but then is not interactive. I do know that one can use 'tinker steps' in the custom launch arguments section, but googling has proved less than helpful for what arguments to use when. Any additional information can be provided.

Touchpad issues in Steam
I have Linux Mint Cinnamon installed on an older Acer Aspire F15 and am having problems in Steam. I’ll open a game, play for about 5 minutes and then the cursor stops moving. I’ve checked in terminal commands and it’s still registering movement and clicks but is unresponsive on screen. I’ve tried updating i386 drivers and a few other fixes to no success… about to lose my mind

Help needed - Gaming on a A10 8770E mini PC
Hello everyone. I am aware this is an old CPU. It can play quite a few games on Windows 10 though, once the boot sequence finished and it finished loading all stuff it needed to load.
I have searched for information to see if I can use this system with Linux for some light gaming. I did manage to install Bazzite, and my initial experience with DOTA 2 was good (it runs better than on Windows).
It went downhill after that. Doom 3 is a no go (need to check the Lutris Linux port), Borderlands 1 GOTY Enhanced, abysmal performance. These two worked ok on Windows.
Are R7 graphics supported for Linux gaming? I read on some posts that it is, others that it isn't, others that say "it depends". Perhaps Bazzite is not the best distro for this machine? Does anyone have a system similar to mine who could perhaps recommend me a distro or some insight on configuration?
Specs:
HP 705 G3 Mini PC
A10 8770e AM4 CPU
16GB DDR4 ram
512gb NVME
1 TB HDD (can replace with an SSD if it will change anything)
Any suggestions would be welcome.

Low FPS RocketLeague(steam), game seems to upscale resolution somehow
When running Rocket League in Kubuntu, I noticed significant lower FPS (usually well over 240 when uncapped).
Something odd I found while fiddling with settings: First I noticed the game resolution was set higher than my monitor by default, and when setting it on 1920x1080, letters became blurrier.
Then, when changing display mode to borderless (with 1080p), it decreased the game window size, revealing that the game does some sort of upscaling when it's fullscreen, and then enables the performance decrease.
I added 2 pictures to show the setting between fullscreen and borderless and the performance counter.
Thanks for any help/insight

How to play Fallout London on Linux: A Guide
Before starting, you'll need to own and have access to the following:
Heroic Games Launcher: https://heroicgameslauncher.com/
Fallout 4: Game of the Year Edition (GOG version): https://www.gog.com/en/game/fallout_4_game_of_the_year_edition
Fallout: London (GOG One-Click Installer): https://www.gog.com/en/game/fallout_london_oneclick_edition
Follow these steps to get the game up and running. Step 1: Install the GameFirst, install the Heroic Games Launcher. Once it's set up, log into your GoG account within Heroic and install Fallout: London One-Click Mod.
Step 2: Fix Audio Issues with WinetricksTo prevent missing voices and sound effects, you'll need to install a specific component.
In Heroic, navigate to the settings page for Fallout: London.
Scroll down and click the Winetricks button to open it.
In the Winetricks window Install both xact and xact_64.
Post-Installation NoteAfter completing these steps, Fallout: London will launch directly into the game, bypassing the standard Fallout 4 launcher. Because of this, you cannot change graphics settings through the launcher interface.
You will need to adjust your graphics settings manually by editing the game's .ini files. Attempting to run the Fallout4Launcher.exe from the Fallout London directory will not work as some bug renders the buttons un-clickable and I have not found a way to resolve this.

What exactly is kernel level-anti-cheat?
I have been using Linux Manjaro and Windows simultaneously for several weeks now, although I increasingly consider Manjaro to be my primary system. I mainly use my PC for university work (which functions flawlessly (mostly)) and gaming. However, I have played relatively few games thus far. I have heard several times that games with anti-cheat do not work or cause problems, but I use Easy Anti-Cheat with 7 Days to Die and have not encountered any issues. However, the new Cod's and Battlefields are said to be unplayable because of the so-called kernel-level anti-cheat. Therefore, I have several questions:
1. What exactly is a kernel anti-cheat? And is it even necessary, I mean, most shooters are flooded with cheaters anyway?
2. Would it be less secure to open this system for Linux systems, or is it simply a matter of laziness?
3. If it is just laziness, is the effort really so great that it is not worthwhile for developers?
4. How do you see the future of this problem? Is a solution in sight, or are there at least some approaches, or will I be "chained" to Windows for the next few years because of this?

Xbox controller help needed
Hi. I need help with my Xbox Controller. It is a X|Y Series controller (model 1914), and it doesn't work over Bluetooth, but it does on USB. I tried xone (with a "Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows") and xpadneo, but it didn't work. This problem also appears on my laptop (Latitude 3540) and even my Steam Deck (256GB LCD). Could someone help?
