replyI have a second computer with an RTX 4090 for gaming (running Windows). I also used the new RTX 5090 running Linux to evaluate whether Proton/Wine allow me to run Windows games on linux (yes, it works, but the compatibility and frame rate issues make me stick to native Windows for now).
replyI wonder what's going wrong there? Personally I found compatibility and performance on Linux to be extremely good. And just keeps getting better. And that's not even just me, that's all kinds of benchmarks out there. Sorry to hear that. : ' (
replyNo idea. I agree that in principle I should have close to the same performance on Linux. I just didn't want to spend a bunch of time customizing configs and updating software so I could reach parity with Windows when I had two computers.
replyHaving built an almost identical rig earlier this year can promise at least one similarly-spec'd machine gets equal use between AI and gaming (Both on Linux). Stupid-excited for the Steam Frame to finally come out.
