Quoting: MohandevirIn fact, I just want to swap my noisy GTX 1660 Super because my son want's it and it runs a lot quieter on Windows than on Linux. The problem is not the price, it's the availability. On Newegg.ca, 500$CAN is like 356$US (approx.) which is not far from MSRP.

Edit: Can't even find a scalper posting yet. It just feels like these have not been shipped yet, at all.

One catch with higher prices now is that you can also sell a used card on Ebay to compensate a bit. That works especially well for AMD cards like Vega and RDNA1 ones which can sell for almost double their original prices.

Quoting: finaldestNote to buyers that HDMI 2.1 features are not supported on Linux on AMD GPU's E.G FSR, FREESYNC so you must use HDMI 2.0 for FREESYNC or use the closed source driver.

I'd say if you are going for such high end card as 6800 XT investing in a good monitor is worth it as well, and all high end ones like 144 Hz (or higher) adaptive sync IPS models have DisplayPort, so HDMI woes are usually a non issue.

I'd recommend something like LG 27GL850 (2560x1440, 144 Hz) or LG 27GP850 (2560x1440, 160 Hz).

By 2022 there should be more fabs operating so supply should actually start to improve for real then.

May be they can negotiate with Hitman publisher and actually make a proper release next time.

The switch to PE broke some PulseAudio patches in Wine staging that are needed for Cyberpunk 2077 (without it audio in the game is crackling):

At least it works if you switch the prefix to use ALSA.

Does Vapor predate Amazon buying Twitch or it's Bezos's idea?

Does anybody have an idea if this [External Link] could be legit?

I have no way to check if it's legit, but it's not hard to imagine. Stadia is Linux. I suppose with enough motivation CDPR can release a native version.

Did any of the developers mention making native games for Steam Deck?

Cyberpunk with DLSS on Performance and everything on ultra I get around 50 to 60 fps at this resolution.
Without DLSS something around 30fps.

Yeah, at this resolution I'd imagine you might need upscaling with that card. I'm using 2560x1440 so didn't face the need for it so far.
