Switching from Nvidia to AMD grafics card

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. März 2025 - 19:28

Hello, A couple of months ago i switched from windows to fedora, since im working with it. Since swapping i never really got big problems with the video games i play except 1 game that came out a couple of weeks ago (Monster Hunter) since then im thinking about how to improve the experience. Im currently sitting on a RTX 4080 Super with severe grafical problems. Im not 100% sure but i want to get a couple of opinions regarding this scenario: I got a proposal from a friend who is willing to buy my 4080 for round about the same price as the Card i want to buy: AMD Radeon 9070 XT

Do you think i should agree and swap and would it improve the efficiency for gaming on linux?

Can you enable gamemode globally? EndeavorOs

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. März 2025 - 19:14

Is there a way to enable gamemode globally, I have used it on steam with the launch parameter but was looking to have it enable for emulators (not emudeck). Also this is my first time using Linux, I installed EndeavourOs and liking the experience so far, already installed mangohud, solving the problem of incorrect time since I’m dualbooting, auto mount a drive I was using on windows, what else can I do as a Linux newbie to get to know how things work.

Setting up an NTFS SSD for Steam & work on Drauger OS

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. März 2025 - 18:35

Hey everyone,

I'm using Drauger OS (Ubuntu-based), and I have an SSD formatted as NTFS. I want to use it for two things:

  1. Installing and running Steam games
  2. Storing school/work projects

Should I keep it as NTFS or reformat it to something else? How do I properly mount it so that both Steam and my other applications can access it without issues?

Any advice or step-by-step guidance would be super helpful. Please explain like I'm five because I'm a complete noob at this. Thanks in advance!

Newbie here, need help with The Sims

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. März 2025 - 15:15

I have been trying to get my sims game to run consistently without much luck hope someone can help

I have the sims 4 on Ubuntu and steam with most of the packs. The game opens and I can even play for a few minutes but as soon as I try to travel or save my game, this happened once and I was able to fix I believe, it crashes. I have my settings turned down to medium. I am on the current stable version of proton. I also don’t have mods. I am not sure what I could be missing to make the game more stable because everything seems like it should work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Heroic Games Launcher with Steam

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. März 2025 - 14:34

Hello!

I recently switched to Linux and used Heroic Games Launcher to play my Epic Games... Games. On my old machine everything worked and I added the Games to steam via the option in HGL and I could start the game with steam overlay and everything.\ Then I switched to a new PC and installed Arch on my nvme but now when I add my HGL Games to steam and want to play they say "running" for 2 seconds and then back to nothing. Starting the game via HGL works fine.

I installed the newest HGL version v2.16.1.

What could be the problem? If you need other information I will try my best to provide that.

Problem with Nvidia Drivers with low Vram Gpu. Is there a way to force the GPU to be on full power all the time,even when the vram is full?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. März 2025 - 13:22

I have a RTX 3050 4GB. Running games is fine. Past two three months I have tried my best to make the most of it. Right now I think I have exhausted the workarounds. So what happens is the game runs fine there is no stuturing, but even though the vram is not maxed out for some reason the GPU Wattage goes low like 55W or something out of 75W. Can we force in to be at full wattage just like windows does.

Overclocking a 7800XT

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24. März 2025 - 12:22

So I'm trying to overclock my GPU. On windows I could set a +15% increase to the power draw bringing it to about 300. For some reason on Linux its capped at 280. I've tried corectrl and editing the /sys files but I can only change the default and current cap not the maximum.

I'm on Arch Linux 6.13 with KDE. Ready to provide any additional info if needed.
