I purchased a system76 Thelio Mira Elite With a AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT. I kinda regret not going with Nvidia at this point but it is what it is. I primarily use it as a developer workstation, but want to play games on it as well so I can be rid of my windows box.
I didn’t expect it to be able to play the latest and greatest games but I did expect it to be able to play older titles reasonably well. Games launch from steam and seem to work, but I’m getting between 0 and 10 fps on the title screen of Kerbal Space Program. Other games are similarly functional but poorly performing.
Where do I start? How can I ensure my GPU is being leveraged? Is this as good as it gets?
Yeah I’ve tried several Steam Play options. I get different behavior from crashing to some wonky rendering of the windows behind it, but none work
There’s only one Steam Play option.
What do you mean? There are the following:
Proton experimental Steam Linux runtime 1.0 Legacy runtime 1.0 Proton hotfix Proton 9.0-4 …
If you mean just the global checkbox, yes that’s on
Yes, the option that says “Steam Play”.
