I agree. However, I will say, in my experience, if you want to use it exclusively as a gaming PC and exclusively with Steam, and without any sim peripherals, and without some competitive online multiplayer games, it works extremely well, and without any hassle.

    I don't know what that is.

    In my case, it's a direct drive steering wheel and pedals. They make cool stuff.

    I also run a Quest2 for VR through Virtual Desktop, and Assetto Corsa modded to the hilt. It can be cranky enough getting it all stable on Windows. If I could be sure that all runs on Linux with minimal fucking around I'd probably switch.

    I've got about 25GB of space on my C: drive. Would a dual boot be viable until I can be sure everything is working?

    Yeah, probably none of that is going to work without lots of tinkering.

    VR is also notoriously problematic in Linux.

    Not really necessary, that's what live boot disks are for (basically booting from a USB drive). To test if things work.

    Yeah, pass then. That's what I suspected. Thanks.
