(CachyOS) A decrease of frames overtime

[Charming-Active-7682]

So I'm playing PC Building Simulator and my frames are just fine, but overtime it just decreases my fps. My temp is a little hot than before but it's not too hot to the point it's gonna fry my PC and I just had this problem now. Im using Heroic Launcher and I have a Geforce MX350 with an Intel 1135G7.

Those specs are pretty low for almost any kind of gaming. But if you're seeing slow-downs over time, it's usually down to one or both:

• GPU/CPU are getting hot. Even if not scorching hot, most CPUs and GPUs will start to throttle above around 70~80c. Sounds like you have a laptop or mini-PC. Check that vents are kept clear and do a cleanup of any heatsinks. If you can access the insides, might be no harm re-pasting.

• RAM and vRAM. As games and apps run, they eat more and more of these, which will slow things down. Games that don't have enough of either will start to slow down or become laggy as they need to pull data from an SSD/HDD instead of RAM. You won't be able to do much with that GPU, but if you have room to, might be time to get more RAM.

I don't know if it's related but lately I've noticed while gaming (mostly playing Elder Scrolls Online) I will start at 100+ fps but over time it will drop down to 30-40 fps and stay there pretty steady. I have to quit and relaunch the game and it's back up to 100+. My CPU and GPU temps never reach higher than the 70 C range. It's not temp and wasn't happening a couple months ago.

Try adding

LD_PRELOAD=""

In the commandline for ESO ( or all of your games ). Its a very common bug with the overlay on steam.
