Gaming on Linux with a graphics card with 8GB or less of VRAM just got a bit easier, thanks to Valve developer Natalie Vock. She recently created fixes that ensure limited VRAM is prioritised for games, thereby improving performance, preventing stutters and generally making for a smoother gaming experience. But why were these fixes required in the first place?
