Problem with optiscaler
I'm trying to play Ghost of Tsushima on Bazzite using OptiScaler. Everything seems fine, but when I launch the game, I get this screen saying it can't detect my GPU. If I accept it, everything works, and I get better results than with the FSR3 that comes with the game. I'm using a Radeon 780M. Does anyone know how to fix this? It's annoying having to change the controller settings every time I launch the game.

Worth it to switch to linux?
Hi everyone, I have been out of gaming for a few years, and few days ago built a new gaming pc. I installed win 11, and ran into this subreddit. So now I wonder would there be a big performance increase on my ryzen 5 9600x and 9070xt if I switch to linux?

I fixed VR controller tracking in MSFS2020 on Proton (my first code contribution to the Proton project!)
Been wanting to contribute to Proton for a while and finally found a bug I could actually fix.
MSFS2020's VR controllers would spawn at your headset and refuse to track. After some digging through Wine debug logs, found that xrConvertWin32PerformanceCounterToTimeKHR in wineopenxr was stubbed as unimplemented. Games call QueryPerformanceCounter for timing and need to convert that to XrTime for pose prediction. Without it, the runtime gets 0x0 as the timestamp and can't predict where your controllers should be.
30 lines of code. Cost me 64GB of RAM overnight because building Proton is absolutely insane. Crashed my entire DE. Worth it.
Bonus: this also completes the last unimplemented functions in wineopenxr's openxr_loader.c.
PR: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/pull/9347
Prebuilt Bins in case you want to test it: https://github.com/PhialsBasement/Proton/releases/tag/msfs-fix
If anyone else has been wanting to contribute but feels intimidated, just find a bug that pisses you off enough. That's apparently all the motivation you need.

Used RX 5700XT 1080p gaming
Hello:)
I currently have an old GTX 1070. I'm in the process of transitioning to linux, but I've heard how the pascal generation of cards tend to struggle with DX12, as well as having poor driver support (nvidea in general).
I'm considering upgrading my GPU, but prices are fairly high in my country. I can get a new RX 7600 (non XT) for about $340, or a used RX 5700XT for about $220.
The 7600 is a little out of my budget, but it would be doable after saving for a little longer.
The main thing I'm concerned about is the risk of buying a 2nd hand GPU that's isn't under warranty.
Since I'm playing on 1080p, I'm not super concerned about performance differences, but a newer card, with better support and a warranty might give the 7600 the edge.
I would appreciate any insight veterans of the space might have :) Thank you

Game won't launch anymore
Hey, I'm currently playing The Knightling on Steam. Game worked fine yesterday but this morning when I launch it, it stucks on the editor logo screen and I have to force quit.
The only thing I did is enabling resizable BAR and above 4G decoding in my BIOS. I went back to disable them but the game still gets stuck.
I tried using a different compatibility layer, using X11 instead of Wayland, launching through Heroic instead of Steam but it's always the same result.
I added PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to get a crash log but it's very long.
This line comes the most :
1529.320:0148:014c:trace:unwind:RtlGrowFunctionTable 000000007017E7A0
With this one sometimes inbetween :
1529.320:0148:014c:trace:unwind:RtlAddGrowableFunctionTable 000000007026BE08, 00000000702CE6C0, 0, 513, 70be0000, 70bf0000
My PC is on Debian 13 / Gnome 48 / Kernel 6.12 / Steam native package

D7VK 1.1 adds experimental Direct3D 6 support for classic PC games on Linux
Should I change GPU?
Hi the question is pretty simple but it's not an easy answer.
I currently have an rtx 4070s and I switched to Manjaro a few weeks ago. I obviously noticed a loss in performance for DirectX games, the question is should I switch to an RX 9700-xt? I can buy one for around 600 euros and I think that I will be able to sell the 4070s pretty easily (given also the rumors of Nvidia cutting production). So what do you think? Is the upgrade in performance that noticeable?

Migrating to Linux
I've been dabbling into Linux for a bit now on my laptop, mainly with Mint. And with the sorry excuse of an "OS" that windows is becoming, I've decided to just fully migrate to Linux on my main PC (runs a 9070 XT and an 15-14600KF).
I'm mainly gonna game on it, so I don't worry much about compatibility problems with productivy software. Although I know online games don't like Linux much, as they can't run their spyware rootkits disguised as anticheats on it, but thats a given when migrating to Linux.
What I wanted to know is if there are any pro/important tips to getting the best and cleanest setup to get going on my fresh installation, for eg: specific programs or tinkering.
And also, which distro would fit my case the best? I've been thinking about 3 options: Mint, Bazzite, and CachyOS. What would you guys recommend of the three and why?
And as one last small question, will I have any problems with my CPU's E-cores and P-cores thing going on? As from what I understand those are built for windows 11 specifically.

Broken keyboard in Medal of Honor: Allied Assault
On the latest Fedora version. Playing Medal of Honor: Allied Assault from GOG through Heroic on Flatpak using the latest Proton-GE. Every key I press is interpreted by the game as "pause". Any known cause?

Trying to use lossless scaling but don't know what to do.
Hi, I installed Bazzite on my laptop with an RTX 3050 a few days ago, and I want to use Lossless Scaling on Plague Tale: Requiem for now. I am playing the game using Lutris.
I own LS on Steam, and I changed the beta branch to linux_testing. I installed lsvk gui using ujust get-lsfg (or whatever the command was; I don't remember anymore, but it worked). It installed an lsfg gui, and I pointed it to the Lossless Scaling folder from Steam for the DLL.
Now I am stuck. I don't know how to use it in actual games. Please let me know how to use it in Lutris AND Steam games.
