Hey guys,

after a few months back on Windows 11 (mostly because of my CPU) i want to migrate again to Linux. With my old setup i used Linux Mint, but i know that some packages are really old and i needed to tinker a lot of things. I liked it a lot but im just thinking about to try out OpenSuse Tumbleweed. Because of a lot of things - KDE, Wayland etc. Do you have any experience with Tumbleweed and Gaming and is there maybe a recent recommendation how-to to set this up? What would be also great is Secure Boot - i read a few things that it is possible with OpenSuse Tumbleweed but do you guys have experience with it? I'm also open for other OS recommandations :) My CPU is a R9 7950X3D and my GPU is a Radeon RX 6950 XT And i have a AIO with a LCD Display (NZXT Kraken 280 RGB).

Thank you for your help :)

It has for ages, even on X11 IIRC. I happen to have two monitors, one with VRR and the other without, and I needed Wayland to get that to work properly.

This is on AMD, YMMV with NVIDIA.

Is vsync still being forced?

Idk, I don't play competitive games, and I don't particularly value high FPS gaming (my monitor only goes to 95hz, which is plenty for the games I play).

I have seen that KDE supposedly allows turning it off now, so it's possible GNOME also does since GNOME seems to generally have better Wayland support. But I'm really not sure, I just generally leave vsync on in games.
