    K… This is just not true. Plenty of AAA games run well on the steam deck. Currently installed on mine, RDR2, cyberpunk 2077, horizon zero dawn, Forza horizon, uncharted legacy of thieves, the last of us, and for funsies I just started another fallout 4 playthrough. I’m sure others have lots of other AAA games they play on their deck.

    If it’s the exclusives you’re missing, like Gran Turismo or something, I think that’s a different argument.

    I just installed fedora 40. Was absolutely amazed when my three monitors just worked. Installed some games and realized I had forgotten to install the Nvidia drivers. Installed them… Laptop locked up wouldn’t boot. Unplugged the third monitor and it started working. Screw Nvidia. Not buying another system with their trash. Fix your driver’s you selfish POS




  • I had a couple Asus laptops over the last few years, and didn’t much care for them overall. Too bulky, and finicky at times. For my current laptop I went with Lenovo legion slim and I much prefer it.

    If you want to go Linux gaming, then I’d stay away from Asus completely. There is a project called Asus ctl, which I had ok luck using but it’s better for older Asus models.

    If you truly want to focus on Linux gaming, system76 makes some similar laptops to the Asus lineup but with more compatible hardware.

    There is also the fedora slimbook which probably gives you the best form factor with at least a somewhat modern GPU.

    Lastly, the best option, regardless of windows or Linux is to get a Framework laptop. Though they can get pricey
