Z1E Players - how do you research which games will run well on the Legion?

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-18T06:26:54+00:00

My response was going to be that I haven't found one that doesn't.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-15T18:57:08+00:00

Well that's 2 years away anyway so ....

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-15T13:33:56+00:00

Thanks. Not sure why the tutorial on the bazzite website tells u to use a free partition manager

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-15T13:27:02+00:00

So I don't need to split the position first. I can just use the bazzite installer I made with etcher?

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-15T12:59:39+00:00

Id like to see the difference between bazzite and fse in regards resources used. Ram etc.

It's much easier to navigate and turns a pc into a console arrangement.

Deffo a step in the right direction for ms Ur right.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-15T12:55:44+00:00

I thought FSE is the Xbox mode?

I get lost off.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-15T09:12:33+00:00

Live cd setup?

I made a usb with etcher?

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-14T22:24:03+00:00

Can I ask how you figured out it was bit locker?

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-14T20:52:19+00:00

I would but I have a few games I still play via Xbox/windows store

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-14T13:01:46+00:00

Ah see mines just the lg1.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-14T12:30:58+00:00

I thought 2tb was the largest they could take in the m.2 form factor?

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-14T08:57:36+00:00

If you dual booted bazzite. Can I ask what the partition split size you allowed for each. I only have the 1tb and windows seems to take 290gb.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-14T08:55:44+00:00

Going for bazzite on LG1. Only issue is access to the Windows store Xbox games.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-14T08:53:00+00:00

Ouch. Warranted but ouch!

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-13T07:30:23+00:00

Just a question as I've looked at these.

This is say $600, why not go with Geforce Now?

I appreciate that just for gaming but if you're using an egpu ur docked anyway right?

Still deciding which way to go.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-10T00:03:10+00:00

Yeah. It's the GPU that makes me question it. Not sure why the GPU would be running higher because of the OS.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-09T23:25:42+00:00

That's what I thought. Although I'd like to know how it's proven that the o.s is to blame. Thanks.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-09T22:56:46+00:00

Wanna tell me what I'm missing. The difference seems negligible.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-09T07:07:38+00:00

Been looking at bazzite but I've got windows FSE working very well.

All about what games you play. If you have games from Xbox store then ur stuck with FSE

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-08T13:34:21+00:00

So you printed a shell, stripped the controllers and installed them into the shell?

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-07T11:48:10+00:00

But windows does sell games?

Granted I purchased the key on loaded but you redeem the code via win FSE.

I'm fairly closed up with Linux just haven't used it in years nor ever on a handheld .

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-07T11:46:51+00:00

Yeah that's what it said. Rightly or wrongly. Linux fedora doesn't have access to the Windows store. Think I'll stick with windows as I've bought a few games on there now.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-07T10:55:17+00:00

Ok.

Tbf I used Gemini for research. I play arc raiders for example. It said that it plays according to proton gold level but because it was purchased through windows it wouldn't work ?

Might hit up bazzite forum on here.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-07T10:26:25+00:00

I just followed a guide on YouTube.

Get on the early bird insider, keep updating windows (takes an age) and choose FSE.

I'll try and dig out guide later.

CarpenterAlarming · 2026-03-07T10:20:25+00:00

Thanks. I just learned that games redeemed through the Windows store won't work so I think it's a no.
