I was browsing on system76's offering to see what PCs they have and noticed that they have an ARM Computer that apparently faster than the fastest Apple Mac but for cheaper (Based), but I'm wondering, how well does ARM computers game on linux with proton, it is very expensive to me atm and I can't afford it, but maybe in the future I could consider it to be my first desktop as I always been using laptops, obviously gaming isn't like the main priority as I would like a workstation to do heavy work such as blender and stuff and perhaps put gentoo on it in the future (if its supported) but I would like to game on the side when I'm winding down that's all, so can it game well?
considering the cpu can reach crazy core counts wouldn't that help perhaps?
I'm not too familiar on how well the x64 - ARM conversion works, but in general gaming tends to be more dependent on single core performance and I'd assume that emulating single core functionality with multiple cores doesn't really work, or at least with performance you'd need.
Yeah truely multithreaded games are a rarity (and hard).
