I'm sorry little one...

I'm one of those weirdos that never thought the screen looked bad to begin with. I'm interested in the upgrade of course, but I can give it another year. The software upgrades alone make it feel like I'm running a new Steam Deck compared to when I got it 1.5 years ago.

Pretty much this, nothing on his knowledge in what he's saying, but listening to Steve talk at length is tedious. The Internet is doing its Internet thing when people get too big and make a mistake, but there's no way people are tuning into Gamer's Nexus for entertainment.

Some recent experiences with KDE Wayland on a NVIDIA 3070TI

Reply in thread

In my experience using something like

export KWIN_X11_NO_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=1

export KWIN_X11_REFRESH_RATE=144000

export KWIN_X11_FORCE_SOFTWARE_VSYNC=1

would basically work in allowing the 60hz lock released from the 144hz main display, but it would still introduce tearing, especially on the secondary 60hz display.

With Wayland it's an out of the box, tear free experience which is what I'm referring to.

[Guide] Everything you need to know about gaming on Linux

The NTFS warning is a little disingenuous. I wouldn't recommend people go with it if they're choosing Linux only obviously, but I'm going to say with years of personal testing about 99.9% of things work just fine using an NTFS drive. I think it's been years since I had any kind of issue with game data that I attributed (and maybe falsely) at the time to the NTFS filesystem.

In steam you'll need to symlink your compatdata folder to a linux filesystem, but that's about it.
