Can you try to run the big picture/ gamepad UI and see if it lag? This my only real issue blocking me from switching back

I don’t currently own a gamepad, so I can’t help you. I hope somebody else can help.

I have a RTX3070 and I never felt any lag using big picture/gamepad UI in Ubuntu/Manjaro/Endeavour.

But you can Dual Boot and only use Windows for gaming. I did that initially

Manjaro/Endeavour.

Curious about why both?

Started on Manjaro but I was annoyed when they let their SSL certificates expire several times so I moved to EndeavourOS. Now I am using NixOS, and I probably stay with it for a while.

I’m guessing they’re distro hopping. People often jump from Manjaro to Endeavor to get a more clean Arch experience. This is what I did too, on my laptop a couple of years ago, and I’ve stayed on EndeavourOS since.

I got a RTX 3080 myself and no matter what distro I used the new gamepad UI lagged so much that it was unusable… maybe this has been fixed, I haven’t tried it in a while.
Also are you using x or wayland?

But you can Dual Boot and only use Windows for gaming. I did that initially

Sadly I wont switch until this is resolved. But I use this rig only for gaming and navigate through gamepadui so I dont have to see Windows lol.
I use UNIX (Linux / macOS) on all other hosts.

I was using X in all of those. Now I am on NixOS and Wayland, but haven’t tried steam/big picture yet.

Use X not Wayland on NVIDIA GPUs. I’m running nixos on my laptop / desktop and big picture works without issues on both hosts.
