Running Kubuntu atm but looking to see if I can get more out of my hardware. I booted up Cachy last night from ISO and it took barely any of my ram, 3gb I think, for the test I was going to install Steam and link to my existing game library mounting my kubuntu drive. My VR experience is quite acceptable at the moment, but it could be better. I get occasional stutters and sometimes I am put into the steamVR environment for a second if I turn too fast, I am hoping a more up to date kernel could help. Using the steam system monitor shows that when this happens my CPU/GPU/RAM are never close to being at 100% often at or less than 75% usage each, though the FPS is often around 40 - 60 (og vive headset, on windows rarely went above 50fps often down to 30). Hardware is Ryzen9 9950X and Radeon RX 9070XT OC. So the questions are:

1. Will everything just “work” as stated? Install steam, link to steam library for games (I expect these to just work, downloading for a one off test will take a long time on a problem game of 15+gb) and steamvr (this is my kinda concern, though it should be small enough to install in ram if necessary)?
2. I have 64gb ram, will this run similarly to being properly installed on an m.2 drive?
3. Is there anything I should look out for when doing this?

Any tips, suggestions, or links would be appreciated. I am not at my pc but should be able to answer most questions.

Asking here as this IS gaming related, but if another place would be better I will move the post there.
