Hey, I am fairly new to linux and have recently bought a new monitor to do some more gaming with. Though I have been annoyed with wayland having the support for the monitor but x11 actually running games at 165 or higher fps. My specs are
- AMD ryzen 7 5700x (with hyper threading so we got 16 cores active)
- Nvidia Geforce RTX 3060 12 gig
- Asrock b450m-hdv r4.0
- 16 gigs of ddr4 memory
- Samsung 980 pro (nvme)
- Lexar SSD (i dunno which one but my games are on the samsung drive)
- A 2 terrabyte harddrive with a name i have no clue
- KDE plasma 5.27.9
- Wayland
- Using Fedora 39 workstation
- the latest current nvidia drivers (535.129.03)
If you guys could help improve wayland performance or find solutions to make x11 work better with multi monitor support I will probably never think about windows again lol
Weird to me is the way around. Frame drops every other moment on X11, smooth on Wayland.
yeah I have some games perform noticably better on wayland
Ghostrunner 2 averages about 68FPS on xorg and about 89fps on wayland
Exact same compositor? I’ve found most persistent stutter problems can be traced to “some stupid shit” running or polling in the background every x seconds
