I have decided to switch to Linux Mint from windows. I don't use computer for work that much. And for my personal use I'm switching to Linux Mint. I have heard a lot about it. So giving it a try. I know about emulating windows in linux to play window games. But how do you use cracks and stuff?? Does emulating also access my 100% graphics card or less? I want to know about all these. Please people in my condition help. Thanks in advance :)

Everyone else has already replied to your question, but take a tip from me. If you have an old PC or low-spec system, dual-boot Linux Mint alongside Windows. Run games on Windows natively because Wine always yields fewer FPS than Windows.

Proof: I get around 45-55 FPS in a game called Dread Templar on Proton, but on Windows, I get 60 FPS with same settings.
