Linux hasn’t always been a great platform for PC gaming, but over the past few years it’s become a pretty viable alternative to Windows thanks to Valve’s Proton software, among other things. Not only does Proton allow Windows games to run on Linux handhelds like the Steam Deck, but the open source software can run on a wide range of laptop and desktop computers.
Case in point: the new Slimbook Manjaro is a gaming laptop with an Intel Core i7-13620H processor, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 graphics, a 15.6 inch, 2560 x 1440 pixel 165 Hz display, and the Manjaro Gaming Edition operating system.
