Considering Linux gaming

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. Mai 2025 - 09:23

I have a PC with the following specs: GTX 1080 i5-9400F 16GB DDR4 2666Mhz RAM M.2 NVME SSD 512GB

I want to optimize my PC, and know my way around tech (I work in IT), but have zero experience with gaming in Linux. There are probably some good answers online, but I figured I'd just ask here.

Does it work "as well" as in Windows, and what do you guys recommend?

Overwatch 2 occasionally causes system to freeze up

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. Mai 2025 - 09:16

Hello I have been having issues with Overwatch 2 seemingly at random freezing my entire system and forcing me to shut off by power button. I am playing Overwatch 2 on steam deb version using GEProton8-32 and using the following launch command:

LD_PRELOAD="" DXVK_HUD=compiler __GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SKIP_CLEANUP=1 gamemoderun %command%

System Info : https://pastebin.com/rPZdWbn7

I have a suspicion it could be RAM related due to previous internet searching ,but not 100% sure.

EDIT: Can't post logs via pastebin due to exceeding maximum size of 512 kilobytes per Paste. Any help on how to proceed would be appreciated.

Gamescope limits game fps to my second monitor's refresh rate

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. Mai 2025 - 08:00

I'm on Arch linux, gnome x11 with proprietary nvidia drivers. I tried launching Euro Truck Simulator 2 with these launch options "gamescope -f -W 1920 -H 1080 -- %command%". My main monitor is 144hz and my secondary is 75hz. The in game fps is capped at 75fps and when i lower the refresh rate of my secondary monitor to for example 60hz, the game caps at 60fps. But the game is displaying at my main monitor... I've disabled vsync in game and it still didn't work. The same thing happens with cs2 as well. I've tried to update the drivers, i've changed my drives from nvidia-open to proprietary, I thought maybe the problem is with gnome, so i changed me DE from gnome to xfce, and from xfce to KDE plasma. And none of these didn't work. I thought maybe it's taking the lowest refresh rate available with the two monitors, so i tried to lower my main monitor's refresh rate, and it didn't do anything, the game's fps was still capped at my secondary monitor's refresh rate. I've been trying to fix this thing for weeks now, and i am desperate, please someone help.

Games installed on Windows to Linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. Mai 2025 - 05:11

I have a pretty average laptop, and lately, I've been thinking a lot about switching to Linux (mainly because it seems lighter and more customizable, and I love customization).
I admit I'm really scared of messing up my PC while trying to install it, haha, but my biggest fear is about my games. I've installed around 600GB of games on Windows on an external HDD, and I'm afraid they won't work on Linux (and my internet is really slow, so I can't just reinstall everything). I’ve read other posts about this, but they usually use a lot of terms I don’t understand. So, is it possible for someone to explain this in a way even a baboon like me can get it?

Thanks in advance, and sorry for any mistakes in my English—it's not my native language.

Anyone Else Facing Issues with Rockstar Launcher on Steam Flatpak?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. Mai 2025 - 03:16

Hello everyone, a few months ago, I installed Red Dead Redemption 2 on my PC (Ryzen 7 5700X, RX 6600, 32 GB RAM, Fedora Sway Spin), but unfortunately, I couldn’t get the game to run. It gets stuck on the launcher loading screen.

I’m posting to ask if anyone has encountered a similar issue or knows of a possible solution. Thanks for your attention!

Upgrade from 3080 Ti to 9070 XT?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. Mai 2025 - 03:11

I am using Hyprland on Arch, and I am very happy with the overall performance. I mainly use my PC to play Cyberpunk 2077 and other DX12 games on Linux. I also dual boot to play Faceit/CS2 and VR games.

I want to note that I don't really enjoy ray tracing because I own a 240 Hz display and prioritize high frame rates. However, I really like DLAA.

My PC has a Ryzen 7 5800X, and I play at 1440p. I am interested in getting an AMD graphics card because I have noticed that DX12 games perform poorly on Linux. Additionally, I hope this will help me finally get VR working on Linux.

Is it worth selling my 3080 Ti to buy a 7900 XT in the next few months? If so, how much should I sell my current graphics card for, and what would be a fair price for the 7900 XT? Will my configuration be bottlenecked at 1440p or at 2880 x 1600 in VR?

Thanks.

Flickering issue on primary external monitor (ARZOPA 1080p 144Hz) with KDE Plasma (Nobara 41)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. Mai 2025 - 03:08

I’m using Nobara Linux 41 with KDE Plasma 6.3.4 (X11) on a HP Pavilion Gaming laptop (i5-9300H + GTX 1650).

My setup:

  • External ARZOPA 1080p 144Hz monitor via HDMI (used as primary display)
  • Laptop’s internal screen as secondary
  • Running X11, with Nvidia proprietary drivers (Nobara default)
  • VSync enabled

Issue: I'm experiencing flickering on the external monitor, especially on the taskbar and when launching or playing games. It doesn't happen on the laptop screen.

Anyone else had this issue or knows how to fix it? Any guidance would be appreciated!

Help with Anisotropic Filtering

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. Mai 2025 - 02:35

So ive been playing baldurs gate 3 for the 11th time and i noticed the beard hair look suuuper bad, like its been drawn on with a sharpie, and the reasoning was the Anisotropic Filtering in game is bugged and not working.

The fix was in this post https://steamcommunity.com/app/1086940/discussions/0/5513030395229630262/

however it involves using the nvidia control panel or amd Adrenalin software (im on amd) to apply Anisotropic Filtering to the game to overide the issue, and worked on my gf's computer but linux doesnt have that so i have no clue how to fix it

If anyone has any ideas or knows of a work around I would be very grateful!

In case it helps, I use arch btw

Source Engine games take more system resources to match the same FPS. Survey required.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. Mai 2025 - 01:59

Hello.

I will be brief:
Source Engine 1 games seem to not match the performance they have on WIndows.

It's not a "it's le linux, le performance is le lower", because newer games perform 1 to 1, or almost (5-10 FPS less) or better than on Windows.

I have a Ryzen 5600x, RTX 2070 PC with both WIndows 10 and Fedora KDE.

I can test many computers with both W10 and Linux to compare performance on the same machines, so I am asking YOU to help in this public endeavor!

I need anyone willing to partecipate to have both Windows (10, because up to october it's still officially supported) and Linux on your computers, and test the same scenarios between Source 1 games to check the performance.

Some Source 1 games will allow you to use Demo Files to make comparisons easier (only game which comes to mind is Team Fortress 2), others instead are to be done manually.

Half Life 2 still has its FREE DEMO available on Steam, and Team Fortress 2 is another free Source 1 game.

There are many Source 1 games, more or less known, but I'd say it's fair to use a restricted list of titles to test; if these games have a Native version too then they should be tested both under Proton and Native:

  • Half Life 2
  • Half Life 2: Lost Coast
  • Portal
  • Portal 2
  • Team Fortress 2
  • Counter Strike: Source
  • Counter Strike: Global Offensive (selectable in CS2's Properties)
  • Left 4 Dead
  • Left 4 Dead 2
  • Garry's Mod

-------------------

Here I am going to speak more personally:

I do have other computers, but they either have only Fedora KDE or WIndows 10, and for personal reasons I can't have both installed on those at the same time, except for one which I still have to "thinker with", but that's not the point.

It's not even a "it's Source, you still get 300FPS on a potato!!" because even my RTX 2070 sweats blood on L4D 1 & 2, barely reaching 300FPS as it touches 100% utilization.

Games like Baldur's Gate 3, Death Stranding D'sC, Space Marine 2 and other "more recent games" perform 1 to 1 with WIndows 10, and so do other older games.

On my Gt 1030 PC (I5 3470t, 12gb DDR3) Portal 2 still gets 100 FPS at 1080p maxxed out (8xMSAA), which seems to be 25 to 50% less FPS it would get on Windows 10, but still 20 to 50 FPS more than if ran under Proton (any Proton, even the Proton 10-1 beta that just came out).

Native Portal 2 on GT 1030 Linux PC

.

Other than testing performance among different PCs to see if such behavior is constant and replicable,

I also want to test for possible bugs which may not be present on other people's computers, or are just the fault of Nvidia GPUs.

One such bug is something I don't remember existing in the Linux's version of TF2: viewmodels steal an incredibly high amount of performance (around 40FPS on both machines) and "being underwater) makes the Gt 1030 PC's performance go EVEN LOWER, where no viewmodels allow me to reach 80+ fps, viewmodels drop me from 40 to 60, and being underwater brings me to 25 (at 1080p, high MasterComfig settings + personalizations, 8xMSAA)!!

It would be pretty funny if this is just a Nvidia thing, but still I can't know without SOLID DATA.

I'm gonna update the post when my and others' benchmarks' results come in.
