Been running F37 since beta, it's smooth so far. Had a few hickups during beta, but they got sorted out and I did not have any issues since it got close to release.

Quoting: YoRHa-2B

Quoting: mr-victoryNow Imwait for stable Proton to pick this up...

FWIW Proton 7.0 won't get this since we don't want to bump the hw/driver requirements on a stable release. Next major update should have it though, and this has basically been in Experimental for quite some time now.

And it helps. It really reduces stuttering in games a lot for me. An example would be moving on horse preloading in KCD: Deliverance (maybe shadows/foilage?) and I think in God of War, since I had odd stutters but using a new nvidia driver and experimental they disappear.

May be a coincident though. I doubt it, since those were very prominent and they magically disappeared.

Quoting: Shmerl

Quoting: STiATCards should get a rating on how loud they are.

I wouldn't buy a reference card, noise being one of the reasons. AMD partners like Sapphire generally make better cooled and more silent designs since they need to differentiate in something.

That's exactly why I'd like that information ;-). Not only of a reference design but all cards, since for me that can be an argument for a card. A big one to be true.

Remake. I hope they remake the controls of TW1. Just the switching between signs and stances was annoying.

Great game, but it had it's issues of the time.

A remake of a great game in a new engine? We've seen that working before.

And UE5 with the live parallel editing seems to become more and more popular. And I understamd why from a designer perspective.

Linux ports don't usually turn our well on UE though. Sceptical, but DXVK got it working properly in the past.

I had it already, worked perfectly fine on Proton.

I didn't play it yet though, same problems as the others, want to play the old versions before... But time is lacking.

My bet is on something like a subscription service too.

I do not think they could be close to ready for a game streaming service. Except if they bought Stadia.

It takes a lot of tech and datacenter powet I doubt they currently have.

Open source driver based on vulkan using the zink opengl front would be really lovely.

Will be a long shot though, but we knew after nvidia open sourced it we're talking years not month for a proper open source driver. Depends on the backing, if there are companies backing the devs fulltime, that will be a way faster journey (Valve? RedHat?)

I still hope long run Nvidia goes the way of AMD and contributes / invests there too. But they took a long time even opening up a bit (most work seems still behind locked doors, must be a documentation and organizational hell keeping the issues and request and internal development synced)

It's a start, let's see what time brings. I appreciate the effort too.

Nouveau have done a good job actually getting something working, and we should all appreciate that. But that game has changed.

Quoting: benjamimgoisLast time i tried Wayland on nvidia (nobara) i got significant more stutering while playing games. It all goes away switching back to x11. Works fine for you ?

Pretty much, don't have stuttering issues at all on my config.

What's a specifig Gnome related issue is that in real windowed mode input (keyboard) causes stuttering, but that's for me on X and Wayland. Goes away with borderless fullscreen though, and probably a mutter issue. That's one thing which works on KDE (where I had a lot of wayland related issues to be fair).

Other than that I do not have any stuttering issues (currently playing Zero Dawn, Gods of War, M&B Bannerlord and Shadow of War, and sometimes BF5).

I do use Shader Pre-Caching, which may be relevant to that.

I'm actually running 515.76 pretty fine, I'm running wayland/xwayland though.

The issue is that it sometimes freaks out to a black screen and recovers again. Could be related, but maybe just be unstable xwayland on Nvidia (I ran Xorg in F36, switched to Wayland with F37).
