Why not just play games on linux?
It works so well nowadays
Does it now? I have an Arc B580 and Linux drivers are lackluster at best.
Pretty sure everyone warned that Intel drivers would be iffy regardless of OS and to only buy if you're okay being a beta tester for Intel.
The linux AMD GPU driver is superior to their windows driver
Intel arc has good hardware codecs tho
Except they’re fine on Windows and have been since I got it. But yeah it’s definitely a dealbreaker for moving to Linux, I’m not buying new hardware
my god linux and intel graphics drivers were so easy for me to setup. Even got HDR running first attempt which is apparently hard. No idea why, may have just been the distro made it easy.
I figure that at least a few games I like to play are not compatible with Linux. I haven't yet gotten the full list of games that won't run on it but I'd hedge a bet that there's more than one. One of them which I play a lot, Warframe, is apparently a bit buggy on it. I'm a sucker for multiplayer games and if there is kernel level anti cheat on them it might cause things to break.

Proton has a constantly updating list of games and how well they work on Linux and the Steam Deck
Man, none of the games I am trying to get running are on there. Bummer.
Thanks for the link! Saving this so I can check it out later.
