    Re: New DOOM under wine?

    Hmm "Linux is not for gaming", I think Valve/Steam, Epic Games/UE4, Crytek/CryEngine and most the "gaming servers" people are playing on would disagree with that.

    Re: Problem AMD graphics Steam games on 16.04

    I think QIII was referring to the AMDGPU-Pro driver which is a "Hybrid" proprietary driver that uses the AMDGPU kernel module.

  12. Re: Any comments on this Desktop config for running Ubuntu, please?

    Not sure on the Quadro card with 4k especially as the memory it lists is only DDR3.
