Being in a AMD ecosystem, serms to be a lot smoother transition than nVidia from what I've seen.

That's the first distro that caught my eye for gaming. I'll def be looking for other distros in the future, so thank you for the suggestion.

I only have a stability issue with a single game and it is one I gave an example on my op, Satisfactory but that is since the latest update so I'll eat and see before I say it's something to do with the OS.

Than you for the suggestions and I'll look into them.

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll def be looking at new flavour of distros as my knowledge of Linux expands. Garuda was just the first one that made me jump.

That's an amazing jump and congratulations on doing it.

I made the jump on my main gaming rig last week, using Garuda and it was a very smooth transition.

I've tested 30+ games from my steam library and all have worked like they did on Win10/11.

Now I'm trying to figure out how to tune my 5800X3D and 6800XT like I was able inner Windows and I'm golden.

PS: KDE Plasma is amazing!

After contemplating for 3-4 years about switching my main rig to Linux, I did it on Friday just gone.

Note for the below, I have a full AMD system.

  • I went with Garuda Dragonized distro as it is gaming focused and has all the game related stuff included.
  • took me less than 30mins going from gaming on Win11 to Linux, but I did the research before.
  • there are a few tweaks if you use Steam but you have Lutris to help you.
  • of the 35 ish games installed, all of them work without issues, but they need updating once you enable compatibility to Proton.
  • the default theme is too flashy but you can select to bring it down a few notches

Technical

  • if you have secondary SSD or HDD, dedicated to games or files like I did, it is advisable to have them backed up to an external drive as you will need to re-partition them from NTFS to use them properly in Linux
  • with Garuda Dragonized Gaming, all drivers are installed but follow the Wizard at the beginning and check all that apply to you. It will save you time.

Good luck and looking forward to having you on Linux!

So erm... I read your paragraph on Wondersong and thought, "that sounds amazing, I must get". Go to the game page "this game is already in your library"...... Fine fine, I'll get on with my backlog.

I have been using uBlock for a long time, but since I've pair it with PiHole in my house at least, there have been no ads, even on my TV. I highly recommend people do this for their house by getting a RaspberryPi or an old PC with Linux to sit on their network, it has some setup and learning curve, but once you deploy it, you don't have to fiddle with it, apart from updating it once a month.

I like the wishes of the creators saying they want to be used for good causes, but we all know the true case of these types of machines, military, which is exactly what gundam is.

As a rookie of 1300 hours, this game is by bar the best investment I've ever done in gaming.

Congratulations and now onto a deathworld run, after that I would say go for game changing mods such as space exploration and the like.
