It was true! Luckily, open source gaming platforms like [**Lutris**][2] and Proprietary gaming platform **Steam** have brought many games to Linux platforms and improved the Linux gaming experience significantly over the years. Today, I stumbled upon yet another Linux gaming-related, open source tool named **GameMode** , which allows the users to improve gaming performance on Linux. - -GameMode is basically a daemon/lib combo that lets the games optimise Linux system performance on demand. I thought GameMode is a kind of tool that would kill some resource-hungry tools running in the background. But it is different. What it does actually is just instruct the CPU to **automatically run in Performance mode when playing games** and helps the Linux users to get best possible performance out of their games. - -GameMode improves the gaming performance significantly by requesting a set of optimisations be temporarily applied to the host OS while playing the games. Currently, It includes support for optimisations including the following: - - * CPU governor, - * I/O priority, - * Process niceness, - * Kernel scheduler (SCHED_ISO), - * Screensaver inhibiting, - * GPU performance mode (NVIDIA and AMD), GPU overclocking (NVIDIA), - * Custom scripts. - - - -GameMode is free and open source system tool developed by [**Feral Interactive**][3], a world-leading publisher of games. - -### Install GameMode - -GameMode is available for many Linux distributions. - -On Arch Linux and its variants, you can install it from [**AUR**][4] using any AUR helper programs, for example [**Yay**][5]. - -``` -$ yay -S gamemode -``` - -On Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint and other Deb-based systems: - -``` -$ sudo apt install gamemode -``` - -If GameMode is not available for your system, you can manually compile and install it from source as described in its Github page under Development section. - -### Activate GameMode support to improve Gaming Performance on Linux - -Here are the list of games with GameMode integration, so we need not to do any additional configuration to activate GameMode support. - - * Rise of the Tomb Raider - * Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia - * Total War: WARHAMMER II - * DiRT 4 - * Total War: Three Kingdoms - - - -Simply run these games and GameMode support will be enabled automatically. - -There is also an [**extension**][6] is available to integrate GameMode support with GNOME shell. It indicates when GameMode is active in the top panel. - -For other games, you may need to manually request GameMode support like below. - -``` -gamemoderun ./game -``` - -I am not fond of games and I haven’t played any games for years. So, I can’t share any actual benchmarks. - -However, I’ve found a short video tutorial on Youtube to enable GameMode support for Lutris games. It is a good start point for those who wants to try GameMode for the first time. - - - -By looking at the comments in the video, I can say that that GameMode has indeed improved gaming performance on Linux. - -For more details, refer the [**GameMode GitHub repository**][7]. - -* * * - -**Related read:** - - * [**GameHub – An Unified Library To Put All Games Under One Roof**][8] - * [**How To Run MS-DOS Games And Programs In Linux**][9] - - - -* * * - -Have you used GameMode tool?
