Low 1% in games

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. Februar 2026 - 14:48

I had this issue in multiple distros, sometimes it's ok sometimes is bad. Last time I installed CachyOS and it was great until the last updates and the 1% or 0.1% are low again. The game feels like stuttering and/or I have frame drops. Is anyone with the same problems on a all AMD system?

Very noticeable input lag on WarThunder

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. Februar 2026 - 14:43

-All is said in the title black cursor is actual position and white one is in game cursor (It affects the entire game)

-Secondary question would be how to activate frame generation (FSR) and amd anti lag (shows up in settings but isn't togelable) to maybe mitigate the issue

I'm using the native war thunder client for Fedora with gnome (All up to date) on an amd gpu rx 7600x (16gb) getting very playable fps (high end am4 config) aside from this issue all is fine

Battling castles on wheels? Wanderburg might be my new favourite thing

Gaming on Linux - 24. Februar 2026 - 14:16
Wanderburg is nuts. A roguelike where you build up a castle on wheels (or legs) and battle through various locations and it instantly hooked me.

Horrible performance on CS2

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. Februar 2026 - 13:53

I've seen many posts online stating how cs2 runs great on linux, so having recently switched from windows I was excited to try it.

On windows I used to get 100+fps on medium settings on 1440p

However I am getting 55 fps on all low settings currently.

I am using Linux Mint 22.2 with gnome, with a gtx 1070.

What could be the issue?

Planning to finally switch to Linux - Question about distro choice and general tips/tricks

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. Februar 2026 - 10:10

Hello Linux experts!

I've just purchased a PC that I'm planning to install Linux on. I need to pick a distro and make a plan for a pretty specific combination of use-cases, so I'm looking for recommendations from those of you who might have more experience here.

The primary use-case for this machine will be as a living room "gaming console" - so optimally I want to set it up to boot via bluetooth (for example by turning on an xbox controller from the couch, just like an xbox console would) and the plan is for it to boot into Steam Big Picture mode as default. I know this is possible with Linux, but not easy to setup(?)

The secondary use-case - I also want this machine to run some server related software in the background. Mainly to be used as a 3D render machine while idle, potentially also to run servers for various games I might want to play with friends.

I want the switch between "desktop/maintenance mode" and "Steam/gaming mode" to be as quick and easy as possible, and I want to automate background tasks to turn off while gaming. Between all the various distros I've looked at, I'm not sure which will be a good choice for the listed use-cases.

I don't mind diving in deep and learning new things, I have some basic Linux experience from work, but if this can all be done on a beginner friendly distro for someone coming from Windows, without much impact on performance, that'd be a really nice bonus.

Any help would be much appreciated, especially if you have experience with setting up similar systems already!

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

PS: If it matters, some of the specs on the PC are:

  • Ryzen 9 3900x CPU
  • RTX 2060 Super GPU
  • 64GB 3600mhz RAM
  • ASUS TUF x570 Plus MOBO
  • Corsair TX650M

Not optimal for gaming, but a humble start that'll surely get upgraded over the years.

Trying to use optiscaler

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. Februar 2026 - 09:59

I tried using OptiScaler through GOverlay. I tested it on RE4 Remake, but the game wouldn't launch after installation. I tried it on RDR2 as well, but it also failed to open. Is there a guide to learning how to use it properly on Linux?

The game I've been working on for several months is currently participating in Steam Next Fest. Deep Sheol is a retro FPS survival horror that mixes cyberpunk vibes with Lovecraftian mythology. Of course the game has a native build, just like all the...

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. Februar 2026 - 09:42

The game is being developed in Unity 3D (the Linux version). For work I also use my favorite tools: Blender (version 2.79b xD), GIMP, VS Code and Audacity – everything running on my trusty old Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon setup (AMD Ryzen 5 1600af, 32 Gb, GTX 970).

Chivalry 2 bug

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. Februar 2026 - 07:57

https://preview.redd.it/upf8h1u04elg1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=749ce333cca021d1f1ecb090248489e2440cb176

So I am using Bazzite and trying to play Chivalry 2 on Bazzite, but the bug in the first pic kept popping up until I fixed it a few days ago y switching to Proton experimental on Steam and setting launch options to "eval $(echo "%command%" | sed 's/Chivalry2Launcher.exe/TBL\/Binaries\/Win64\/Chivalry2-Win64-Shipping.exe/')".
After launching the game like that, the EOS error from the second pic appeared and I haven't been able to rid myself of that since.

The only other instances I've seen this issue was from another person also using Bazzite and a single ArchLinux user on ProtonDB, both of which being stuck at the same problem it seems.

Preemptive Warning to RTX5000 users, RE Requiem likely will be broken

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. Februar 2026 - 07:45

Resident Evil Requiem is just around the corner and before its released i just wanted to alert other 5000 series owners that chances are the game will either have vertex explosions and sub 20 fps, crash at launch, or freeze and then crash.

Current recent releases affected by this driver issue that I know of are Monster Hunter Wilds, Dragons Dogma 2, Monster Hunter Stories 3. The freezing and crashing has been in the driver since last August and Nvidia is aware and has yet to fix it. The vertex explosions returned with 590 in December.

While i cant say for certain, its unlikely we will see a fix within the first month of the games release with the current timeline/pace of a remedy for the issue. If you wish to test and report to them some more so hopefully they might fix it sooner rather than some time next year follow their forums and join if you wish to add feedback.

https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/c/gpu-graphics/linux/

TLDR: RTX 5000 users get excluded from capcoms recent games for now. Its Nvidias fault not Capcoms.

Fixing slow Steam downloads on linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. Februar 2026 - 07:31

I'm making this post in hopes that it may help someone that also has this issue.

Issue

Steam is downloading slowly on linux compared to windows, for me windows was downloading around 60 MB/s and linux was around 40 MB/s.

Old Fix

First off, if you haven't tried it already there's an older fix that has supposedly been fixed by valve but it might be worth a shot

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/10248#issuecomment-2227480079

Here's what actually fixed it for me

credit to https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/12082

1 - Start downloading a game in steam

2 - Open the steam console by entering steam://open/console into the url bar of your browser

3 - Run download_sources in the console and scroll to the section that says "Download Jobs:". If there are not many download jobs listed this is the problem. Mine was showing just 2 download jobs

Download jobs: - type SteamCache, name cache1-msp-mice.steamcontent.com, iteration 1, chunks: index 1666, 0 outstanding (0 bytes), 869 deferred, 797 requested, 797 succeeded, 0 failed. 16.5 MB/s - type SteamCache, name cache2-msp-mice.steamcontent.com, iteration 1, chunks: index 1528, 0 outstanding (0 bytes), 730 deferred, 798 requested, 798 succeeded, 0 failed. 15.2 MB/s

Make note of the urls listed here, mine were cache1-msp-mice.steamcontent.com. and cache2-msp-mice.steamcontent.com. Yours may be different

4 - Pause the game download

5 - In order to get steam to use more download sources you can block these urls by adding some lines in your /etc/hosts file like this:

# Block specific steam servers 127.0.0.1 cache1-msp-mice.steamcontent.com 127.0.0.1 cache2-msp-mice.steamcontent.com

Make sure to use the urls that you saw after running download_sources

6 - Resume the game download and wait a bit, it will show 0 MB/s for a while but then it will find new servers.

After this change, steam was connecting to 16 servers instead of 2 and my download speed was matching or exceeding windows.

How does Black myth Wukong run on an AMD PC?
