I am this close to go all linux, Microsoft. don’t tempt me. only thing that make use windows is gaming and that too is slipping away because of steam
Just jump. I went Linux a month ago and never had to go back for gaming. I still have windows installed but I’ve used it only twice because music plugins are not compatible with Linux. Once I find a good guitar amp for my needs I can nuke windows entirely.
Are the plugins VST by chance? If so, check out yabridge, you can install the plugins with wine and even supports 32-bit plugins
Have you seen recent benchmarks? Windows games actually run faster on Linux at this point.
The only exception is the small handful of titles with anti-cheat set to to anti-linux.

On some games. This channel tested 20 of the most popular games last year. Several of the titles didn’t run on Linux at all. Windows had an average win on 4K, and Linux had an average win on 1080p. This is much closer than it has been in years, but it’s definitely not a clean sweep. As you explain, Linux also have major issues with anti-cheat which is used on some of the most popular games today. From experience, I also can’t use my very expensive wheel and peddles because of a lack of drivers. So I can’t make the move to Linux completely.

The issue isn’t benchmarks the issue is many popular titles won’t run on PC without windows. Even wine isn’t perfect.
