The thing is, I game. And I’ve found CachyOS to be performing better on games than Windows. In fact, I’m running Expedition 33 with forced FSR4 on a Navi 2 GPU (which isn’t supposed to support FSR4) and it performs better than with FSR3 on Windows. That honestly surprised me. Unfortunate that FSR is becoming a requirement for so many modern games (thanks UE5). And then there’s anticheat…
That’s kinda where I’m at. Everyone says CatchyOS, CatchyOS, it’s smoother, stable, no issues. And I’m here on bazzite with all the same pros and cons list without seeing a different, I figured id try it myself since all the cons people seem to have on bazzite I haven’t had.
To clarify, I use cachyOS packages on arch. So, I can’t give a review of the distro itself. But the packages do work really well for gaming, especially their kernel and their proton variant. I use GNOME and force Proton to use Wayland and FSR4. So far, so good.

I might give catchyOS a try. I’ve been in bazzite for almost a year and haven’t had any issues.
But wait… If you haven’t had any issues, why bother trying something else?
