Looking to get a mini pc to play steam games and potentially stream my desktop (windows :( ) using moonlight/sunshine.

If I plan to stream the specs don't really matter since the desktop will run the game, however, I think it would be cooler to find a mini pc that could run the games I care about on my TV.

The most intensive games I plan to play on the device would be things like street fighter 6 and other fighting games.

I do have the assumption that steamOS / Ubuntu would both be good to handle 3rd party arcade controllers, but if that assumption is incorrect please let me know.

No limit on budget but I have already found a lot of mini PCs for under 500, I'm just thinking they are overkill for streaming but not quite good enough GPU wise for running games on a 4K TV. So wanted to see what the community recommended, thanks.

!!SPOILERS!!!

​Sorry if i sound tilted as hell, I'm just tilted as hell right now.

The game ran with little to no issues (not include the Nvidia textures bug) up until i got to Cosmo Canyon, and then the game started to crash pretty often but it was mostly contained to that region, so i just tried to avoid it as much as i could (which was really sad, as i really like that region).
but a little bit after the end of chapter 11 the game also started crashing in Corel and that brings me to why I'm so frustrated right now.
A couple of days ago i got the fight against the 2 Turks and then Rufus Shinra i tried it once or twice that day then the game crashed. So i went to bed as it was pretty late by that point.
And today i finally had time to retry the fight, and the game crashed again. But it wasn't a single crash that got me so frustrated, it was the FORTH one.

If you have any solutions or ideas for a fix (or want to express how much they hate this fight) please comment and i will try reply as soon as i can.

I need help, I tried playing cs2 on my machine (pop_os), but the player models just dont render, so it looks something like in the picture, I also cant see other players. I tried verifying the integrity of game files and reinstalling the game, but that also didnt help, anyone had the same issue? I am running an AMD CPU and GPU, any help is appreciated.

Hey everyone, I've been working on this project to turn your machine or server into a Linux Cloud Gaming instance: Cloudy Pad 🎮.

It started as a way to deploy Cloud instances on AWS and such, it's now possible to deploy on any machine or server ! It comes with: - Steam - Epic - GOG - Heroic - Lutris - ProtonGE enabled by default - More coming, like Ubisoft Connect

You can connect via Moonlight to Sunshine or Wolf streaming server.

Ubuntu 22 and 24 are supported for now, I aim to provide support for more distros (like Debian and such). The boilerplate is actually containers so it should be easy to broaden support - we welcome contributions, by the way ! (and the usual Discord server is open)

On the tech side: Cloudy Pad configures your machine via Ansible (SSH) to install all requirements (NVIDIA drivers, system packages, etc.), deploy streaming servers and pair with Moonlight.

I'd love to hear your feedback !

Hella new to linux and on Kununtu. Trying to play DA but can only get through the logos then it stalls on a black screen and closes. Migrating from Windows 10 and having used a distro since Manjaro arpund 2020.

I have an amd card if it helps. Ive tried swapping the protons via Steam and didn't get anything different.

Second issue is Steam opens from the installer but goes to the system tray and has no ui unless opened from the Konsole. A friend said to close it but I have nc if she meant just exiting it or something else.

I appreciate any and all help. & hope I used the right tag.

Was pretty surprised when I first booted up Rimworld on my new Linux install and had noticeably better FPS! What other games work better on Linux?

I know running programs from the terminal can give information. Should I launch a steam game from the terminal and watch the output when it freezes?

Or is there some sort of log that gets created? Not sure if a game freezing creates a form of crash log or not.

I've read on some posts that gamemode isn't as good as it used to be, especially on newer hardware. Is this true? I've still been having issues with Marvel Rivals crashing and I'm not sure if gamemode would help or if something like gamescope would be better. I know I cannot use the two (together at least) so I wanted to get some opinions on the matter.
