    Switch to Linux. As a big-time gamer, I did it last year and it’s been fantastic. Only issue is if you main games with root kit anticheat…but with enough momentum in Linux direction, game studios will be forced to abandon those dubious detection methods anyway.

      Sadly I use way too many programs that only work on windows or Mac that Linux would handicap me. The free open source versions of yhe apps I use are no where near as capable.

      My only option I can think of would be running a virtual machine of Win10 on a Linux install so I can still use those apps.

        Would you mind sharing a couple of the names of the programs that only work on Windows for you? I’m a bit curious.

          I’m not Tyler Bourbon, but it’s Fusion 360 for me. I sound like a broken record at this point, but it’s the only piece of software that keeps a windows install in my house

          Hey Autodesk you should put F360 on Linux
