    I dual boot just so I can still have programming software for many of my ham radios. Planning on getting a graphics card soon and then I’ll use windows for that and fallout 🥴

        I’ve played nv on Linux install without issue! That was def fun. My guilty pleasure is 76, I’ve had a good group on there and we enjoy it. My old hand me down desktop I had to keep a box fan blowing on it because the graphics card would overheat and freeze the PC when playing ANY game. Finally got tired of that jank and moved my SSDs to a small form factor PC that runs absolutely great and I’ve got a sff graphics card in my plans. It won’t be fancy, but it’ll be waaaaay better than the 3 and a half foot tall gaming PC I was using that was constantly overheating. I don’t have the disposable $ to just get a new setup but I’ve always been decent at making something work way better than not having anything.

          at least for me, smoother for sure too. i remember lots of stuttering on windows even with tick fix etc. but out of all my mods, i’ve only not been able to get one to work on proton, the ENB (and yeah i have dll overrides)… :(

      If you have fallout on steam it should be compatible through proton, and it’ll probably run better on your Linux install.
