    So someone suggested to me that Linux is amazing for gaming.

    I decided to split boot and installed Mint and attempted to play Forza Horizon 5. It literally runs like a potato. Also my Logitech steering wheel doesn't work and has major input lag.

    Since you know so little about Linux, my question is what are you having for dinner?

    Have no idea, still haven't had breakfast...

    I don’t use a wheel but FH5 does work well here.

    I think my Nvidia mobile 3070ti card is being funky. I think I got it to run better after trying some ideas online, but there are lag spikes and the steering wheel still didn't work. Just deleted Mint and decided against Linux gaming for now

    FWIW i played it on Linux launch week on a 3080, it actually crashed less than on my Windows install. But that’s fair there are a lot of variables that could cause issues.

    i gues you use an laptop with that i guess you have an integrated gpu and one for offloading that leads to my question do you use prime-run ?

    [–] jaschen@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago

    I was getting Prime-run not found. I forgot what else I did, but finally got it working. The lag spikes made it a bit unplayable esp since this setup is for my dedicated racing simulator.
