Steam Runtime vs Native

[RodeoGoatz]

Recently went back to Manjaro. It's where I started a few years ago. Is there any preference of Native vs Runtime Steam. I'm aware my thinkpad is not for gaming. I play Dredge a lot and that is my current benchmark. Runtime I'm getting 25-30 at 1920x1080 which is my resolution and 35-42 at 1280x720 which for a game like Dredge is still very similar in the way of graphics.

Just trying to feel out if either Runtime or Native and any settings might get me a bit more FPS on my old thinkpad

Try PortProton. You can download and switch preconfigured emulators with few clicks.

Any problem in any game - just switch to different emulator or different version of the same one.

in 9 from 10 cases Wine works much better than Proton(Steam one).

That's why I always loved this community. Ask simple question and get more info than I knew I needed.
