    Awesome, thank you. Is Garuda stable enough for daily use beside gaming? Also, how much of a difference does it give in performance over others?

        I also wouldn’t recommend running GNOME because it seems to decrease gaming performance here and there

        Didn’t Phoronix test this and find no difference? Latency, similarly, is the same across Kwin and Mutter.

        The only thing Gnome really falls behind on in gaming is that VRR is an experimental feature in Gnome and won’t be fully greenlit until next release.

      I’ve been using it daily for about a year on my primary desktop gaming pc without any issues. I love it.

      As for performance, I vaguely remember phoronix doing a benchmark comparison of a few distros and in some tests it was marginally better (cannot find it now though…). For the most part though I’d say it’s not as much about potential performance gains as it is ease of use for gaming. So many useful tweaks and useful programs “out-of-the-box”.

        Awesome, thank you. I’m kind of “shopping” around since I’ll have to reinstall my distro soon
