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.
I've been hard at trying to get games i like to work in mint. It takes a lit of time but it's going ok. Like you said though kind of sucks for multi-player. I can't even get diabolical multi-player to work (after I looked up how to fix the instant crashing audio driver issue) . It's also a lot of qork getting any racing game to work with my DFGT...even though linux does see the axis and buttons, the force feedback is all messed up. Wish I knew how to code so I could fix these issues! But I don't have 12 hours a day to ever learn that
As somebody who's been running it for about a year now, please look into Bazzite
Bazzite refused to boot for me..I stuck with mint as it's always ran pretty good. Old amd fx 8 core and a Radeon rx580
