    Path of Exile Guide

    Probably, I wouldn't be surprised. You can always update your drivers as new ones are released... granted your video card/chip isn't super old. Another thing you can try is downgrading your drivers

    Path of Exile Guide

    That is strange... all of my PC's have integrated sound cards and I didn't have this issue. There is a chance Pulseaudio or Alsa is causing these problems, but its hard to troubleshoot

    Path of Exile Guide

    I originally experienced major "lag" when attacking a monster or attacks in general. For some reason I thought it was a particle/texture problem and found that 1.7.19-WGL_WINE_surface2 fixed it perfectly. But now that you mention sound effects, there is a chance it is related to the "lag" as...

    Updating Nvidia Drivers - Mint

    I love Cinnamon as well. It truly helped me migrate from Windows without a lot of headache. I broke my system as well trying to install drivers. Won't be doing that again. I definitely learn something when I break things.

    Risen 2 Dark Waters Guide

    I played at least 5 hours or more. It has a slow pace because of all the dialog. Most of my video's get a lower frame rate because I'm playing the game and recording. I had no frame rate issues playing the game alone. Its your call because a small handful of game play fine and then crash at a...
