    Dual booting has existed for a long time. Microsoft keeps making it more annoying to do. For my next PC, I’m not even keeping a dual boot around as a safety net; I’m just doing Linux.

      Funny how much ms bitches that secure boot is REQUIRED for win 11. Then you can just turn it off after installing

      Dual booting has existed for a long time but this same boost in performance when using SteamOS might not appear on desktops.

        I haven’t tracked the performance in Proton for a long time, because I already used that information to make my purchasing decisions, but single digit percentage improvements in performance when running games via Proton has also been the case on desktops for a long time. If there’s any further improvement to be seen from SteamOS’s game mode rather than regular desktop, you should see it in Bazzite as well.
