I can't promise anything. The problem is that each game has to be
downloaded and reinstalled in Linux, even when I already have it
installed in my Windows VM (and these are not small files - 50GB is
about the median size for a AAA game). I've seen a few posts about how
to share the data across systems, but nothing that gives me much
confidence.

Yeah, that really is a pain.Before proton I managed various linux+wine32+wine64 locally for a few machines, couldn't even get steam to share any of  those local libraries :(.

Could you let me know what the framerate results were for you on the 1050 with the AC Odessy (Windows and Proton) ?
