hello. i just recently downloaded garuda for gaming. pleased so far but i have a couple of questions. is there a tutorial for configuring to get the most out of my computer. also, i'm running plasma because i like it but would another, lighter de be better for performance? I'm a big Borderlands fan and have had no issues playing them up to 3. 3 is lagging about to the point its unplayable. My laptop (see below) is definitely on the lower end when it comes to gaming but it's what i got So, any tips or tweaks would be appreciated.
I'm not really. I realize what i have isnt great. hell, it aint even good where gaming is concerned but like the op said, its what i got for now so I'm trying to get everything I can out of it. Thanks, I'm using experimental right now. I'll give GE a try
Welcome!
Since you are already on KDE, when you are gaming try turning off the compositor with shift+alt+F12. Your desktop won't look as nice, but it really makes a huge difference - I can get near 60fps on some games with it disabled, and many highly demanding programs like Blender work so much faster with it off. ^^
