3DMark are planning a Linux version but no date for it yet

The other part is that every system that would be running Linux can right now already be tested by installing Windows dual boot
Oh yeah, the guys who wanted to test the performance of the Legion Go S could just boot Win11 to see how it performed with SteamOS... wait... wait, wasn't there something?

I don't think it's anything like that,
Yeah, as with 99.9 % of all conspiracy theories:
It's just something a random Bob on the Internet pulled out of his ass...

But it COULD be true! :-D

Would be fine. I bought the thing on Steam and it would be great to use again. Really miss it, since switching to Linux.

Conspiracy theory:
They don't support Linux, yet, because it would be obvious for the gaming public that using Linux produces consistently higher benchmark scores, so they are paid by Microsoft to not allow that. The manner how it is borked on Linux proves that.
Now Futuremark just want to extort more money from MS. That's why the macOS version. It's just a kind of warning shot.

GeForce NOW app for Steam Deck has arrived

It's interesting that every big and small media site had an article about "GeForce Now on SteamDeck".

Was there an orchestrated PR campaign on the part of Nvidia?

Steam Deck gets a big upgrade with SteamOS 3.7 and you can now install it on other AMD handhelds

Am a bit disapointed.
Hoped that the issues with individual scaling between docked and handheld desktop mode would be solved but no, it isn't because they still stick to x11. :dizzy:

AMD announce the Radeon RX 9060 XT and a big FSR 4 'Redstone' upgrade

Either as a FSR3 upgrade (via FSR4_UPGRADE=1)
If it works that simply it would be great.
Do you have any sources? Ideally with picture quality comparison?

I would like but won't upgrade to 9070XT, if FSR4 isn't commonly usable. That thing isn't cheap enough for this.

FYI it has been running on Linux for over a month
Really? In which game?

The FSR4 SDK is still nowhere to be seen and FSR4 still doesn't run with Linux/Proton/vkd3d...

Is there an ETA for these?

Why do you want a Linux client when you don't need a client at all and can just download the games or use your favorite FOSS Launcher like Heroic or Lutris?
