Hey all hope your day is going well! Apologies for the wall of text, don't feel like you have to read it lmao.

Got a couple of questions I want to ask the subreddit to get some opinions.

I've ran arch as a rolling release multiple times and I love it, however I have a lot of issues with nvidia drivers as I have a 3070, the main problem is some performance drops that also make my gpu only be used at like 40% and my cpu is the same, maybe I was a noob but it made me go back to windows for work things as I didn't have to worry about it.

However Windows is just being more and more invasive and no matter how many times I disable things like recall it comes back. So I want to jump back to arch full time.

I've noticed that Nvidia 570 seems to be coming out, so should I wait for it to be added officially to the Arch reop? I want the best support for my gpu that linux can offer. Details about my set up as I had some other issues, I have a RTX 3070 and a R5 5800x. I have 2 monitors, however one has Gsync capabilities so I want to use that on my primary monitor as I love gsync. I also much prefer Wayland over X11 and I want to run a WM, probably hyprland but open to other suggestions. So how is Gsync looking on linux rn?

Another thing is I am a game developer so I want to be able to run unreal engine on my Linux install, has anyone done this before? If so how was the set up experience?

Another thing is I game a lot, but I have barely played any anti cheat games in a long while and any I do support linux as I use a steam deck as well, my question is if I use wayland how is gaming performance?

I set up sunshine for game streaming to my steam deck as well so is sunshine good on linux?

And the final big question is, how is setting up multilple drives being mounted on boot? I've had some issues way in the past and haven't done it since, is it easier to do now? I have like 5 Drives in my pc and use them all lmao.

Thanks for the help!

EDIT: Ignore title, it's ArchiveXL, not tweak. ;)

Right so, another day, another fucking update, and everything breaks. It's like Skyrim all over again. Anyway! I'm on Mint, running through Steam.

I tried updating my mods, and no go. Redid everything from scratch. Mods are updated and should work. Even did a full clean reinstall, new proton prefix with d3dcompiler47 and vcrun22.

- Install only updated RED4ext - game starts.

- Install updated ArchiveXL as well - game refuses to start. "RED4ext.SDK: Failed to resolve address for hash 0x28cc1abd."

No idea what's up. Still no go. Anyone got any clues?

Was just testing out the new nvidia 570 *beta* drivers while using cachyos under wayland. It would seem that either GGG fixed something, or these new drivers did, because I can launch the game everytime through stream (Proton Experimental with vulkan renderer) without any black screens. The performance for me is equal now if not better for me on Linux than in windows.

Lots of improvements with this upcoming driver, Good Job Nvidia!
