- Today, let's take a peek at Nobara Linux: the distro I've been using for gaming on Linux, creative work, and software develop. It basically has everything I need so I could ditch windows

I recently moved from Windows to CachyOS and its great for gaming, been playing Wukong and the new WoW expansion. Performance actually feels better on Linux.
Are you using Nvidia or Amd GPU?
in kde type kwin, click it pick get new, install khronkite and enable and apply, bam instant tiling with no setup, this will make your life much better never having to mess with windows again
It would be funny if Glorious Eggroll added the anime character as the OS's own mascot
There are a few anime wallpapers bundled with the distro that have the anime 👀
been using nobara for 2 years. love it
i hate windows.This is really nice.
I was already looking for a windows suitable replacer, knowing that the support for Win 10 ends next year. But after the announcement of the Recall feature that will be present on the next Win 11 update, now it became mandatory to switch to Linux once and for all. And Nobara is really surprising me! Even games like Brown Dust 2 (a mobile game that has a PC client) works flawlesly, out of the box. Some games don't work, but even so it's way better than stick with windows.
Lol stick with windows linux only if you want to waste a time
@@armanis1234 If you're a Windows fanboy, what are you doing on a channel that is mostly oriented towards Linux? If you gave up Linux, well, it's a choice you made. The recall feature is too much of a intrusion to let me continuing supporting this company.
@@armanis1234 mate at least give me 5 reasons to use windows that aren't already in Linux. And have you even used Linux before?
OK - we badly need more content and coverage of the latest video games and how they run on Linux. How's Space Marine 2, Diablo 4, Fortnite, Call of Duty, Final Fantasy XVI, etc. Also, on Windows you get a special 3d-v cache optimiser for AMD x3D CPUs. How's that handled in Linux nowadays?
Fortnite and call of duty aren’t supported no matter how much tinkering they won’t work. Older cods work just as well as they do on windows really just depends on hardware
Fortnite wont run because of the Anti-Cheat, but I don't got COD but I've played Apex on linux before and never had problems with it.
newer games generally run just fine unless they have intrusive anti-cheat. It is usually older games that do work or require "work" to make them work but these also often struggle in Windows 10/11 too.
I am also happy with Nobara Linux, although it has its weaker points. The Crew 2 now has an offline mode. I wonder if a solution will be found to run it on Linux. I bought it for $1 and found that it doesn't run on Linux. But this confirms that most games work. Because I hadn't even checked it before.
Guys, I have to say, It is 5 days later, after I decided to REALLY give Linux a legitimate trial as my gaming machine. I have been releasing CentOS updates since 2004 and some version of Linux has my main 'business' workstation since 1998. But embarassingly enough, I tried windows gaming about 5 years ago on Linux and decided it wasn't really worth the effort. Oh boy, has the tide turned.
I litterally can't find a game that I actually play that I can't get to work. Well, outside of Xbox Gamepass, which I will be unsubscribing from before the end of this month :D). All my Steam games are working brilliantly. So much so, I reformatted my main Windows machine and it is now Nobara 40.
It is actually kind of embarrasing that Linux gaming became this polished and I have been using Windows .. live and learn. All I am doing now is figuring out how to tweak my AMD GPU on my main gaming box in Linux.
try Tarkov
Can you make a video editing testing for this distro?
arch is best, much more support for devs and gaming, i am both, aur has anything you could need , my pc runs better than windows now, switched 10 days ago and used chat gpt to help me after i used archinstall and picked kde for vrr and hdr, yes it exists and its brand new to linux just leave the default theme for sddm alone or welcome to blank desktop and no cli
Personally I just use regular Fedora KDE but I definitely don't knock Nobara.
what you think about Linux fedora nabora ? for ppl focused on gaming & modding is it easy as windows ? 🤔
please make benchmark for other games like list of old & new games 🐧💙😅
We tried, but it wouldn't stop locking up after install. There's also the issue of longevity where One Man Band projects are concerned.
I am looking for benchmark results that compare different Linux distros with focus on gaming. I know performance of games is (or could be) a struggle when it comes to gaming on Linux. So what I want in the end is to find The One Distrubution that runs games with the maximum possible performance on my hardware.
Do you have any hints where to look next? The best thing for me is a direct comparison between Nobara AND Linux Mint Debian Edition, both running The Witcher 3.
The results of such side by side compare would give me enough data to make the decision.
They're all basically the same performance wise, unless they ship with a newer Mesa or (modded) Kernel. And performance is pretty good, sometimes even better than on windows. Give Kubuntu a try.
The only one that has any optimization for gaming to speak of is cachyOS.
I have to do it to you. No-Ba-Ra.
idk but its got a great icon lol
el problema de nobara es que solo es mantenido por una persona. en ese sentido es mejor cachy os o garuda pensando a futuro.
Does DLSS Frame generation work with Nobara?
Not yet: Nvidia will have to release those drivers to Linux to be able to do that I believe :(
FSR Frame Generation works tho.
Why windows 11 still best for gaming
Cachy OS is even more polished...at least that is what I'm seeing from my feed of "linux Influencers" reviews.
I'll have to give it a look: glad to see there are so many good linux gaming and spinoff linux variants these days!
I can't decide which one to try when switching from Windows: Cashy or Nobara...
@@tiREV55 Try Mint. It will be much less overwhelming.
Get used to not be required to use as much the terminal yet still be able to install most software you would ever need.
After getting used with a distro you can try Nobara, it will be significantly easier to maintain and not break on you compared to CachyOS that's based on Arch.
@@tiREV55 Nobara is Fedora based which appealed to me personally: dnf and flatpak included as software repositories is useful me with software engineering
@@JohnCodes That is also why I am interested in Nobara. (Fedora Based) .. got to keep my Linux in the Family :) (I work on / release CentOS Stream for Red Hat).

Is it possible and safe to run games that are not on steam, epic games, etc?
Yes. Easiest way would be to added them as a "non-steam Game" in Steam and enable Proton (Steam Play) for it.
yet when i try to install davincy resolve oin an clean install i get this error :
Missing or outdated system packages detected.
Please install the following missing packages:
zlib
annyone knows how to fix this
Run the installer from a terminal and stick SKIP_PACKAGE_CHECK=1 in front of the file path. Simples. It is working perfectly for me. :)
@@Hoaxcast I did that and it did runed fine but I forgot I can’t edit the video without an studio license
@@djordyroke61 ah. If you don’t have a licence run the installer again, hit uninstall and then install the free version (the one without Studio in the name). You’ll be golden.
@@Hoaxcast I can’t edit my mp4s back on windows I used davincy becouse it’s free for the most part and powerful and has every tool I will ever need
@@djordyroke61needs to convert with ffempeg the arch wiki about davinci resolve explains this, you will want to check how to do on the free version.
good , what you think 🤔 best distro for beginner users of linux who wants to switch to Linux Gaming friendly easy distro ? 😅
Windows 11
Yeah go for it. As long as you're okay with doing a bit of reading and research for certain things, but out of the box, Nobara is great. I'm a total linux noob but I've been really enjoying Nobara. Haven't thought about going back to Windows once. I tried Mint a bit, but wasn't getting the gaming performance I should be, so I switched to Nobara. Fantastic OS. The discord is full of great people as well so if you have questions or need something fixed, or just want to make friends with other Linux and nobara users, join up.
All this gaming on Linux is cool, but not practical at all. I’m also a developer who appreciates GNU/Linux, but when it comes to gaming, Windows is king. Try to make Dolby Surround or DTS work under Linux using an optical cable to see the nightmare for example.
Yes linux and gaming=disaster windows is much better
why it feels hard & complicated to switch from windows to Linux from some UA-camrs Experience videos ?
I am give up on linux and completely install windows 11 much much stable and gaming so easy!
i dont have to worry about bugs. i install windows 11 and play ganmes without a single issue. Linux is a good hobby but not practical.
You're just lazy. People who have never used Windows will just simply install this distro (or use their current linux) and say the same thing like you did.
Windows is not a plug to play gaming platform. After installing it you need to install 6 C++ redistributable packs, DirectX (which comes with a bloatware in the installer LOL) and optionally disable bloatwares and telemetry to save some ram and cpu usage. Is that (without a single issue)?
@pikachusolu1606 In what way makes Windows more practical than Linux?
If I recall correctly, I didn't need to isolate my Linux OS at all through a Hypervisor while running Windows as baremetal nor need to reinstall my Nvidia drivers if I upgraded my graphics card nor need to debloat my OS unless the unwanted software came preinstalled.
I am a CentOS Linux Developer and I am doing my annual 'Try Linux gaming and see if I can get rid of Windows for gaming yet'. So far, the answer has always been no .. we'll see how close Linux is to this. I installed Nobara and got the workstation working fine on my old (backup) gaming PC. I can sign into steam, but the installed client is running the Linux version of Steam. I am going to see if I can get things running on Proton-GE ..
EDIT: OK, that was easy, set the compatability layer. Thanks 😀
You mean redistributables that auto install when ran through steam, gog, etc?
Windows gamers aren't getting the installer from MS website. And no less bugs on linux? All the games that "work" except for this one part or "work" but these areas of the game have weird artifacting.
I LOVE linux and linux gaming's progress but don't spout bullshit that isn't true@@manhle1582
The only thing that is putting me off gaming with Linux is free sync not available
