As in title; currently I am running following specs:
- RTX 4080 SUPER

- Ryzen 7800X3D

- 32GB RAM DDR5 6000MHz from GSkill

- B650 A ELITE AX V2 mobo

and I mostly play ZZZ, Genshin Impact and some RPGs (Tainted Grail, Pillars of Eternity, Rogue Trader, etc.) as well as some note writing for tabletop RPGs in MS Office. Given all that I am looking to move to Linux, as currently Win11 broke on me more times than I can count.

I am familiar with Linux a little bit, given my job background (Data Analyst with some Data Science and GO programming), but not on the level where I could comfortably spend days on end debugging stuff, given limited time and energy after 9-10 hours of work each day, so the more it's seamless to run, the better. Especially that my last experience with Linux as daily OS was with Debian and configuring CUDA to work in 2020 so... lets say I had some issues then.

Any kind-stranger advice to the newbie?

Hi,
is anyone playing path of exile by any chance and is using the awakened-poe-trade overlay with the game running in gamescope? (gamescope -W 2560 -H 1440 -f -F fsr --adaptive-sync --force-grab-cursor -- %command%). Or any other external overlay with gamescope?

Normally, the overlay will recognize keyboard shortcuts done when in-game to perform some action, but when the game is run with gamescope as shown above, the overlay wont recognize the game running / keyboard shortcuts have no effect.

Did anyone had luck running awt + poe or other external overlay in gamescope? Thank you!

After years using windows I finally want to switch due to reasons i probably don’t have to explain in this community. As a software developer myself I think I can handle the most common issues. But because my Linux experience is extremely limited I have a lot of questions.

1. Probably the most asked question, which distro shall i pick? I tried to figure it out myself but simply got overwhelmed and I don't want to spend hours to try "everyone" out. I'm searching for a simple distro with no bloatware. I don't want any pre-installed applications like web-browser, media player or whatever. This stuff I can install myself when and if i need. Although I don't like installing driver and stuff so if a distro comes with pre-installed and managed driver I would like that. Anything else I don't care. I'd prefer to be a stable fork and having some GUI. Even a one-time-pay-distro would be an option, just subscription are definitely out.

2. Because I anyway need a new PC i ask myself if there are some kind of hardware restrictions I shall consider. E.g. I remember in the past I got told Nvidia Cards are not a good option because the driver support for Linux based OS is horrible or even not existent. No Idea if that's still the cause 'cause I read somewhere Nvidia want to change that but not sure in what state of development they are now. Would you still recommand AMD or is Intel and/or Nvidia still an option?
   In my current setup I'm using NZXT hardware (and yes a know now it's shit), are there any brands which you would not recommand due to compatibility issues?

3. I love Logitech's Powerplay and therefore all my other peripherals are from Logitech as well. Because of that I also use the G HUB Software. As far as I know G HUB is not supported under Linux. I do not really need G HUB as long the devices work itself. Are there any other known issues related to Logitech compatibility?

4. Due to work and game compatibility reasons(anti cheat) I still plan to duel boot windows11. Because of that I plan to have a shared partition for stuff like steam install. Are there any good guides and/or known pitfalls you can recommand?

5. Any other hints, tips, tricks and considerations are welcome

Thanks already in advance for any response even if it's just to one point.

So I'm trying to string together a button sequence for a game and the guides I'm seeing say there's a macro recorder in AntiMircroX but I don't see it. Any help?

Hey everyone,

I’m curious about how Linux handles GOG games in general. Specifically:

• What was the game brought you to GOG?
• How was your experience running it on Linux Mint (or other distros)?
• Did it work out of the box, or did you run into errors or extra steps?
• Any tips or pointers for installing and running GOG games on Linux?

I’m thinking of diving into my GOG library on Linux and would love to hear real experiences from the community before I start.

Thanks in advance!

For example, i want to run GTR2, the guy says

"Tinker Steps:Switch to older version: 9.0-3, protontricks

$ protontricks 8790 -q mfc42 d3dx9 vcrun2003 vcrun2005"

What am i supposed to do with it? Switch proton per game? Where do i put this $ line? In the game's launch options or?

I'm linux noob so sorry if it's obvious. Tnx all.

I have 16 GB of Memory, but for some reason, only in this game am I seeing the issue where it can only use 5.11 GB. I don't know the cause of the problem, and I would really appreciate a working solution for it, since because of this issue i can't play the game with Good FPS even on the lowest quality
