Hello, I'm new here. The thing is I've been seeing a lot on Linux lately because of school and I've been told good things overall about it.

My question is: How does gaming works on Linux? I've been a Windows user all my life, Windows 11 right now. I've seen some crazy Linux desktops and such, but since I'm a gamer too, I want that to be a prerequisite.

I don't really feel like setting up a dual boot. Linux came to my mind since I'm studying Infrastructure and Cybersecurity, everything is about Linux, while Windows mostly being used and Virtual Machines.

How good is Linux for both and everyday use + gaming compared to Windows, considering I'm completly used to windows at this point.

Every time my partner (running fedora KDE) starts Skyrim, it runs at like 10fps and with what feels like around 1000ms latency. I'm relatively new to linux and don't really know much about tweaking the launch settings, any tips?

Today I wanted to play a game (overwatch), but something happened. I don't know what to do, other games make external monitor gain this error too. Problem happens only on external monitor. I tried to change proton version, but problem occurs on other protons too. It happens spontaneously, for some time it disappears, and reoccurs later.
