Perfect, thank you!

Is setting up a VM in Linux any different than doing it in Windows? Would I just copy the files over when it is finished?

Are these launchers that provide a wrapper similar to Steam and Proton? Do you recommend one over the other, or is it dependent on game?

Awesome, thanks for the info and heads up

I don’t mean to hijack the thread, but I don’t want to start a new one for a related question. I understand I will probably have to wipe or partition my primary drive, but will I be able to use my other drives as-is, and have access to all of my files and things?

I got scared for a second, I love Sunshine. I don’t think I will have much need for it in my current situation unfortunately

Is dual booting as simple as loading the Windows OS off of a drive in the BIOS?

Alright, I don’t have anything capable of HDR so that is no worries. No (intrusive) anticheat, no game pass. I’m sure a few random games have issues. Doesn’t sound like it should be a big deal though. Thank you

That’s what I was thinking but I just wanted to make sure. I really appreciate all the help

Thanks! I didn’t even think to look for a compatibility list. I’m quick to check them for emulators, but it didn’t even cross my mind

Thanks for the help. I’m not fond of invasive a anticheat as it is, played like 10 minutes of Fortnite when it was a survival game, and I’m sure I can use the high seas to get around game pass. I’ll have to check a couple of specific games, but I think I might be pretty good to go

This may be a silly question, but as far as online games that work, it shouldn’t matter if my friends are on Windows, right?

I’m mentally preparing for the switch. Would you mind naming some of the games keeping you on Windows?

We’re not so different after all

Just what I came to the comments for. Thanks for the link

I love to hear it

I couldn’t help but cry.

Me neither friend. What a great story

I can’t believe I didn’t think of that. I’m walking to the cash register with one now. Thank you for your help!

Edit: worked like a charm! Thank you so much for all of your help everybody! I’ll have to remember to download the demo as soon as I get internet

I’m hoping I can find an old graphics card in storage, or a buddy with one. I don’t have any money for replacing anything at the moment. Gonna look into the tip from the user below about the port on the mobo

This is very interesting! Time to see what I can find. Thanks so much for the tip!

Edit: I’m not having any luck finding anything on that. I’m gonna see if it would be possible to desolder it from the mobo and solder it onto the gpu

Congratulations! I’m hoping I will get to try it soon. I get internet in a week, but I have to find a graphics card or monitor with display port. My HDMI port got fucked on my current GPU
