same

I have one gpu rn

a 1050ti

im gonna buy another gpu

and sell the 1050ti

and buy a cheap amd card for my linux system

1050ti is too old for modern gaming anwyays

Yeah I used to run only Linux like all the other purists but taking compatibility is unparalleled with Windows so run it primarily for gaming

My primary is a Vegas 64 and secondary is a GTX 1080 which I want to pass through for gaming or some machine learning that needs Cuda. Having OpenCL for the AMD card and Cuda for the Nvidia installed at the same time on Linux is a migraine inducing process.

hmmm

idk what gpu to buy to replace my 1050ti with

I have like $1000 budget but only if I need to

1440p at around 60fps on mostly high settings?

I also develop in a framework that is cross compatible so I can do majority of dev in windows. When I need to do Linux specific tasks like compile the operating system I can do it in a vm

I only keep a Windows VM hanging around for my research reference manager because even thou the software has a Linux management interface, it currently only interfaces with Microsoft office and not libre office in my experience even thou the website says it should be able to.

I have a 1080 ti and run dual 4k monitors without issue

what about gaming though

> framework that is cross compatible so I can do majority of dev in windows.

even more the reason to NOT use windows?

if its cross compatible do it all in linux then?

I have no issues with it doing cod that's probably the most intensive game I run

hmm

fair enough

im making my own voxel game engine

and raytracing is very expensive

I have a power House computer for gaming that runs windows that's why I dev in windows

see thats why im gonna do windows kvm

so I can dev in linux but game in windows without having to wait ages to reboot

What is y'all's experience with steam proton? I don't get to game very often, but most games I've tried worked fairly well.

its good

but lots of games dont work at all

the games that do work work fine

Never used it myself

but well, pubg, rust, any game with an anticheat doesnt run on it

most games dont even allow running in a vm but there are bypasses for detection

Wish I could get steam proton to work with other games not in steam. I've made a note of buying most of my new games from GOG rather then Steam so I'm not locked into steam.

I usually just end up running them with regular WINE but the proton version of wine I believe has more gaming optimizations.

ye

I feel like a lot of people would be happy if among us would just release a Linux version

Luckily with so many people moving towards cloud based apps Linux compatibility with business facing applications is becoming better

Although then that usually means software turns into a subscription based pay model and not buy once own forever
