Need help choosing future GPU.
Hey everyone, I'm currently facing a bit of a dilemma and could really use some outside perspective.
I'm looking to treat myself to a GPU upgrade and have been doing some research to figure out what would best suit my needs. My current card is an RTX 3080 with 10GB of VRAM, which has started to feel limiting, especially in more demanding titles that keep pushing past that VRAM threshold.
After browsing around, I've narrowed it down to two AMD cards: the RX 7900 XTX and the RX 9070 XT. Both happen to be available at roughly the same price where I live, which honestly makes the choice harder than I expected.
One thing that stood out while going through benchmarks is that both cards seem to fall noticeably behind Nvidia in ray-traced workloads, and from what I've read this apparently holds true even on Linux, which is my main OS. That's a bit of a concern since I do enjoy games that lean into RT effects.
The other thing I haven't been able to find much on is VR performance. I use VR pretty regularly and it's honestly one of my main use cases, so it's not really something I can ignore. VR-specific benchmarks for these cards just seem really hard to come across.
So I guess my main questions are: which of the two is the better pick for Linux gaming, how bad is the ray tracing gap in practice, and how do they actually hold up in VR? Any insight or personal experience would be hugely appreciated!

Issue with Mouse-Movement in steam games
So far I managed to have Helldivers2 and Space Marine 2 up and running well, to the extend that Nvidia on Linux allows me to.
In the Video provided you see my mouse movement mis-interpreted as Controller-Stick-Left in all directions in SM2.
On HD2 I can fix this issue by moving the game to my second monitor with 'WIN+LEFT', this trick doesnt work on SM2 and is a general problem I faced so far in all of my (2) installed games.
Has somebody else had this problem before?
OS: POP-OS 24.04
Steam: ProtonGE-10-32 with "mangohud %command%"
mouse-movement interpreted as controller-stick

CS2 480Hz Issues
Hi,
I recently picked up the LG 27GX790A 480 Hz monitor. When I set it to 480Hz, CS2 locks at 0Hz. https://imgur.com/a/vXIhIZK
There is no option for fullscreen which is why it's set at fullscreen windowed.
Any thoughts?

About wine prefixes
If I have a Linux system set up with Lutris and Wine and all my games installed into ~/.wine, can I just copy that folder to another Linux install and expect everything to work(Debian -> Fedora)? Or is it better practice to use separate Wine prefixes per game, store them on a disk, and re-attach/import those prefixes on another system?
Basically trying to figure out the most reliable and portable way to manage Wine game installs across systems.
Also during setups for games, do I need to also install certain dependencies like directX, c++ retribution and etc...?

MY FIRST "GAME"
Hi everyone! I just published the Pre-Alpha of PRESS-PLAY on Itch.io. It's a first-person atmospheric experience where you play as a nameless detective. I'm looking for technical feedback on the feel of the movement and the overall atmosphere. Run better on Linux than Windows btw!
Engine: Godot Play(Pre-Alpha ):

Nomm Linux Mod Manager (3 weeks later update)
Hi again,
A few weeks ago, I shared a new project I'd started working on, NOMM (Native Open Mod Manager)! (https://www.reddit.com/r/linux\_gaming/comments/1qwvqi7)
I wanted to share a progress update after adding some new features but for the people who only care about Skyrim or Fallout support : it's still not there (and likely won't be for a while).
For the rest, I've added support for Cyberpunk, The Witcher 3, and Ready or Not.
When I say "added support" I mean that it should be able to download and install most mods fine, but once again, this is an early alpha project, so there will be bugs and missing features.
I made a new video to showcase the features I've worked on over the past 20-ish days but it boils down to this:
- Added support for GOG/Epic libraries via Heroic (and added little SVGs bottom right of the games so you can know which game comes from which library)
- Added support for the games mentioned above
- Added mod update checking
- Added a new settings screen that lets you change your downloads/staging paths & update your nexus mods API key
- Revamped the downloader and added some shenanigans (I've always wanted to do this)
- Added a warning when files have been removed by the user with the list of files missing
- Added a list of files attached to a mod in staging (when the mod contains multiple root files and not just a single folder or file)
- Completely revamped the first launch onboarding
- Completely changed the way staging works (for the better I hope)
What I really need now is people to actually test the app and tell me how it's breaking working for them!
(Seriously though, without feedback and testing on other systems, it is very hard for me to make significant progress)
As previously, you can find the Github here: https://github.com/Allexio/nomm/
Thank you in advance for any feedback you can provide either on the Github or on Discord. It is very much appreciated.

You don't need PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE for RE: Requiem, FSR 4 is supported out of the box
The menu may show 3.1* on first boot, but on restart it should show 4.0.3

Cyberpunk 2077 benchmark automation for Linux
Hey chooms,
I got tired of launching Cyberpunk 2077, changing one setting, running the benchmark, writing numbers down… and repeating that 50 times like a lab technician instead of actually playing the game.
So I wrote a small open-source tool that does it for me automatically and helps find the best settings for my system on Linux.
If you like tweaking and chasing perfect performance, maybe it’ll help you too:

Minecraft on ARM?
I'm thinking of getting a zenbook a14 on sale, because it suits all my needs... except minecraft. I heard of Prism Launcher, but ngl I'm used to modrinth's launcher (it already runs native on linux, but not on arm).
Is there a way to make the latter compatible, and in either case, would mods cause problems?
( im not opposed to using prism, just don't wanna have to change things if i dont need to :p )
