It can run pretty much everything that I've thrown at it these days.
The only major game that I can't run that I'd like to is Command: Modern Operations. There is some anti-cheat stuff for multiplayer games that may be an issue for some other players. And some mods in some games, like Bethesda's, are more of a hassle to set up, because the Windows modding environment has more users.
I did discover, after trying for the first time the other day, that ReShade works fine in Linux (I tried it in Kenshi) using this script, which is neat. Was one of the few utilities that I wasn't sure I could get functioning in Linux.
The Bethesda modding issue is being worked on, though.
Nexus are working on a beta mod manager (only supports a small number of games atm) that actually natively supports linux. Which will make downloading and installing mods so much easier for pretty much any game that is supported by nexus by the time it gets its full release.
