I’m building a new controller “10ft” gaming PC for my living room. The CPU is a Ryzen 5 3600X and the motherboard is Asus ROG Strix X570-I. I have never done a Linux-based gaming PC before and I want everything to “just work” as best as possible.

I assume this means go with Bazzite and an AMD gpu? Anything else I need to be aware of? As I said the goal after configuring is for it to be entirely controller-controlled (8bitdo ultimate and DS4).

      Thanks! How is AMD with ray tracing? I play a lot of survival horror and want to experience that spooky lighting

        Like shit. If you have the money for an RTX, go get one, even if that means gaming on Windows.

        HardwareUnboxed did a with/without ray tracing comparison. TL;DR in most games it’s not worth the performance hit. Don’t bother with ray tracing for now, especially on low or mid-range hardware. https://youtu.be/DBNH0NyN8K8

          That’s good to know actually. Is Nvidia so poor with Linux that it wouldn’t be worth it assuming all else being equal?
