Could try this https://github.com/FEX-Emu/FEX + wine/proton. But as always keep in mind that playing on non-supported platforms can lead to bans in future (never happened but who knows).

Asahi Linux M1 GPU drivers can now run Windows games via Steam Proton
It's explained in the video, it uses https://github.com/FEX-Emu/FEX
- Asahi Linux got 24 games from steam running on M1 Mac mini.

Apple holds press event showing off its ‘latest advances in gaming’
Steam is also funding an x86 tn ARM game emulator, which opens up the potential for it working on Android.

Android tablets and Chromebooks are on another crash course – will it be different this time?
Valve is funding developers working on an x86-to-ARM layer, FEX. I'm assuming that the eventual end goal would be to run Steam on Android, one of the FEX developers was commenting on trying to get FEX to work on an S8 Tab Ultra.

How the f*** does Proton works so amazingly well?
Valve is also funding another translation layer, from x86 to ARM (see FEX).

Apple GPU drivers now in Asahi Linux
Additionally, game emulation won't be optimal until someone fixes this issue from FEX-Emu, which will allow that emulator to run on Apple Silicon. QEMU-user is currently your best option though it is dead slow. Box64 is currently pretty capable, however, it will not be able to run any 32-bit libraries (which even modern games ship a few of).

AMD x PCMR - Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Worldwide Giveaway - Win a Limited Edition AMD Avatar Kit that includes the Limited-Edition AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX GPU and Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU (Only 500 of each ever made!). There are 23 kits up for grabs!
Exchange my 750W PSU for a stronger one as 7900 XTX is a hungry beast, then some upscaling/AI work on (Arch BTW) Linux, testing Cyberpunk 2077 with RT once this fix is in Proton-GE. For the CPU I would obviously have to get a new mobo, and new RAM and then I would test how fast the Dwarf Fortress world generator is/slow, Cities Skylines I/II, RimWorld, Paradox Interactive games, and so on.

Steam on hyprland is running on the onboard graphics instead of discrete GPU
For DX12 games you must set the env var VKD3D_FILTER_DEVICE_NAME. But currently it might not work for some games.

Alan Wake 2 Is an Unexpected Visual Marvel Even on Older GPUs
If anyone is playing on Linux with an AMD GPU and has texture issues (missing FBI text on the characters' jackets is the give away), it can be fixed with applying a patch to mesa-git: https://github.com/HansKristian-Work/vkd3d-proton/issues/175.... It should hopefully be implemented soon. I think it's only limited to RDNA2.

Major programming faults discovered in Starfield's code by VKD3D dev - performance issues are *not* the result of non-upgraded hardware
Vkd3d (the dx12->vulkan translation layer) developer has put up a change log for a new version that is about to be (released here) and also a pull request with more information about what he discovered about all the awful things that starfield is doing to GPU drivers (here).
