I know this has probably been asked before but I am currently using Arch and wondering if my choice is the best for gaming. What are the thoughts from the community? I have an AMD Ryzen 7 processor with 64 gigs of RAM and a decent AMD GPU. Gaming seems to be okay on Arch but I am wondering if I’ve overlooked something better. Thank you in advance.

    Users should not consider SteamOS as a replacement for their desktop operating system.

    Can you show me where in the requirements the OP said anything other than “choice is the best for gaming”. I think SteamOS falls firmly into that category.

      This version of steam OS isn’t what is on the deck, it’s an old Debian-based distro Valve tried to push years ago for a failed “Steam Machines “ initiative. At the time of writing the os on Steam deck of not available for download.
