I could never properly use XFCE for their buggy multiple monitor support (in regards of properly setting primary screens when they are the same monitor type).
Will give this one a shot, even though I am pretty happy with gnome nowdays.

I'd prefer if they fixed the primary-screen bug...

I agree. I've used Linux for 24 years now, and Ubuntu is no bad choice for new users wanting a trouble-free experience. Not my choice, but that does not matter.
I have not had a lot of issues with Fedora either, just upgraded form 36 to 37, but actually, no tooling for nvidia drivers etc. really makes it a no-choice for new linux users wanting to play games, browse the web and do their work.
I couldn't even use my desktop properly with open drivers yet having an NVidia card, and having to deal with monitor selections and really lagging graphics, if I didn't know the reason I'd have immediately uninstalled it again.

Been running F37 since beta, it's smooth so far. Had a few hickups during beta, but they got sorted out and I did not have any issues since it got close to release.
Vulkan-based D3D9, 10 and 11 translation layer DXVK version 2.0 out now

May be a coincident though. I doubt it, since those were very prominent and they magically disappeared.

Quoting: YoRHa-2BAnd it helps. It really reduces stuttering in games a lot for me. An example would be moving on horse preloading in KCD: Deliverance (maybe shadows/foilage?) and I think in God of War, since I had odd stutters but using a new nvidia driver and experimental they disappear.Quoting: mr-victoryNow Imwait for stable Proton to pick this up...FWIW Proton 7.0 won't get this since we don't want to bump the hw/driver requirements on a stable release. Next major update should have it though, and this has basically been in Experimental for quite some time now.

Quoting: ShmerlThat's exactly why I'd like that information ;-). Not only of a reference design but all cards, since for me that can be an argument for a card. A big one to be true.Quoting: STiATCards should get a rating on how loud they are.I wouldn't buy a reference card, noise being one of the reasons. AMD partners like Sapphire generally make better cooled and more silent designs since they need to differentiate in something.

CD PROJEKT RED announce The Witcher Remake in Unreal Engine 5

Remake. I hope they remake the controls of TW1. Just the switching between signs and stances was annoying.
Great game, but it had it's issues of the time.
A remake of a great game in a new engine? We've seen that working before.
And UE5 with the live parallel editing seems to become more and more popular. And I understamd why from a designer perspective.
Linux ports don't usually turn our well on UE though. Sceptical, but DXVK got it working properly in the past.

I had it already, worked perfectly fine on Proton.
I didn't play it yet though, same problems as the others, want to play the old versions before... But time is lacking.

My bet is on something like a subscription service too.
I do not think they could be close to ready for a game streaming service. Except if they bought Stadia.
It takes a lot of tech and datacenter powet I doubt they currently have.
