    How is graphics card stuff with them, all okay in terms of drivers? I assume VR might be an issue?

      Graphics drivers are fine. No idea about VR since I don’t use it personally.

        I haven’t tried my VR on Linux because the general consensus of people who have say it’s bad. It’s impressive how far Linux has come in terms of gaming in such a short time. Proton is incredible.

        That being said, niche things like VR, or running multiple monitors with different high refresh rates and freesync simultaneously are still rocky.

        The biggest issue in see however is multiplayer competitive gaming. There’s no easy path to that in sight due to aggressive anti-cheat software.

        As such Linux is currently relegated to mostly single player games that don’t do anything crazy. That’s honestly good enough for a lot of people, but misses the mark with a lot of gamers.

          or running multiple monitors with different high refresh rates and freesync simultaneously are still rocky.

          Not really an issue anymore with most Wayland compositors (KDE and wlroots, soon to be fixed with Gnome). That’s mainly an X11 specific problem.
