Wine/proton is specifically what doesn’t work, though most linux native games also did not work. Based on my experience with that I’m confident that everyone saying it just works for them has relatively new hardware.
It is a 3060 but I confirmed this is not a GPU or driver issue because replacing the CPU/mobo fixed it. Had the same issues with an older card also, upgrading it didn’t help, nothing I did with graphics drivers helped.
Any idea what? Wine/proton should abstract away all those issues. Or are you talking about old native Linux games?

You get a vulkan error that sounds the same if you have the wrong GPU drivers, some older cards need a different driver eg radeon vs amdgpu
Also possible your card is so old it doesn’t even have a vulkan implementation, what was it?
