Very positively surprised by how seamless the switch from Windows was

submitted by

Today, I switched the last of my Windows machines to Linux: my gaming PC. I've been using Linux on servers for many years but was a bit apprehensive for gaming.

Turns out it just... works. Just installed steam and turned proton on, have zero performance or other issues. I'm using Ubuntu 25.04 for the 6.14 kernels NT emulation performance tweaks. Aside from there not being a catalyst driver for it and so I can't undervolt my card everything is great.

Fair enough, I misunderstood your argument. I appreciate your demonstration. Any chance you'd be willing to share your script? I have a few ideas on how to play with it.

Edit: I forgot, I actually had a HDD fail on me, luckily I was able to recover some of the data. Many .flac files on it were completely corrupted and unreadable past a certain point. The .aiff files I had were perfectly readable. I suspect they were at least partially corrupted. Luckily, I was able to re download all of the affected files. So, no data was actually lost.
