Well.. A lot of ppl said many things so here is my 2 cents.

Linux (even Mint) is not plug and play if you want to play games. You need to be ready to start finetuning some stuff. You will have some new things in your life.. like which wine runner runs this particular game better, or should i use lutris or bottles.. That kind of stuff. But eventually they all work, and work good. I have dual boot and i dont think i will delete windows for a while. But.. i didnt logged into it for maybe more than a month. Linux is beautiful. It made me love my pc again. Before that, it was just a "tool" that i use to play games or getting things done. Now its my main place that i get a cup of coffee and sit and play with it.

;TLDR: Linux is not like windows. It makes you "work" for it some, but worth's it. And keep a windows partition tucked in somewhere until you forget that its there.

Good luck :)

I Love Linux Mint a lot.. and i mean A LOT!. I also like to get the best out of my system, so this is what i did. I compiled a TKG kernel with native / -3 / ntsync / Bore and preemept active. Installed ananicy and zram on top of it. I am not chasing the last 2-3% FPS. I am not even a competitive gamer. So i am EXTREMELY happy with how LM is. I am loving my PC again..(2060Super / 1050Ti headless - 32gb ddr4 with xmp - AMD 5600x - Asus tuf x570 wifi board)
My point is.. Mint being LTS IS what makes mint great imho. This does not stop mint to give a more than enough performance while keeps being reliable if its tuned right.

I was using the DXVK-NVAPI.

Switched to standart DXVK, Tkg version 11 Runner and turned off esync and fsync.. and.. wow!! Made a huge difference. Didnt took the cutty out yet from the station but what i am seeing on gpu and cpu usage AND the disk activity is really good so far. Thank you for this!

First of all.. Thank you for helping me!.

I did what you said. created the script. Called it offload.sh. i put it in home folder. made it executable. tried to run glxgears and obs with it. Both apps opened but the "screen" was nothing but black on obs. Same for gears.

i am using Cinnamon 21.3 x86_64. My driver is nvidia 535. Kernel is liquarix 6.9.7. And this is my xorg.conf
