> Linux sucks at running games, and there is no good Linux/x86 hardware out there.

This isn't true in the slightest. You must be dealing with some seriously outdated information.

I've been running games on Linux full time for 3 years. I made the switch the week Elden Ring launched when it immediately ran better on Linux than on Windows. That was the top selling game at the time. I've had extremely minimal performance issues since my switch. Other major games I've run include Baldur's Gate 3, multiple Resident Evil games, and the Oblivion remaster.

I'm running a 7600X with a 9070XT as of last month and am finding my hardware is perfectly fine.
