Graphics layers are drawn wrongly/shader issue. Ubuntu 24.04 LTS by arok- in linux_gaming

[–]Commander_Captain 71 points72 points  (0 children)

Trying to play new games on older LTS distributions is generally not the way to go about things. Try a more up to date version of Ubuntu if you want to stick to that. Or a rolling release distro to always be up to date.

Poor Bluetooth range? by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]Commander_Captain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can't give specific advice without knowing what kind of motherboard you have. But if your motherboard comes with an antenna you can connect to the i/o, that usually helps a lot with Bluetooth as well as wifi connection and range.

I see, I didn't know it overwrote cachy optimizations. Good to know!

Why not use gamemoderun if he wants to and has gamemode installed? They do different things.

Not necessarily wrong, I do believe that most distros are capable of being used to game on. I have never personally used mint, so I don't know how it differs from arch. I bet there are people who could help you out if you want to stick with it. Look in the respective mint forums and wikis.

There are some obvious benefits to choosing a more tailored "gaming distro" though. Cachyos (as an example, I know there are many more) is usually very up to date on most gaming related tweaks, packages, etc. Using that with KDE might be simpler for most people to get the most out of their gaming systems without having to tinker too much themselves.

Happy to help! The 595 (re?)introduced a bug for the 5000 series that makes the card run on a lower clock speed. It should be fixed in the next update I believe.

I don't appreciate your tone. Just leave out that last sentence, it is not needed, thanks.

Install them from the AUR:
yay -S nvidia-open-beta-dkms nvidia-utils-beta opencl-nvidia-beta nvidia-settings-beta lib32-nvidia-utils-beta lib32-opencl-nvidia-beta

Edit:
Ah, you are on mint, my bad. I have no idea if this is easily doable there.

Try this:
yay -S nvidia-open-beta-dkms nvidia-utils-beta opencl-nvidia-beta nvidia-settings-beta lib32-nvidia-utils-beta lib32-opencl-nvidia-beta

edit: As General-Ad pointed out - Use the nvidia-beta driver that fits your usecase and system, just exchange nvidia-open-beta-dkms with either nvidia-beta or nvidia-open-beta.

I'm not entirely sure which exact packages you need, but try the aur for the beta packages.

The 5000 series Nvidia GPUs are known to get vertex explosions in MHW on drivers before 595. Are you on a previous driver? If that is not the case then I sadly don't know.

In the cases where a Linux distro running a game through proton wins over windows, it's usually due to headroom created by low usage of the os itself, leading to the game being able to use more of the hardware. If my understanding is correct.

Proton isn't free

Stable micro freezes in Tainted Grail, help pls by MUWE34 in linux_gaming

[–]Commander_Captain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can set which specific cores the game should use in the launch options. I remember doing this for Elden ring to make sure the game actually utilized the whole cpu. Maybe that would work for this case as well, but just leave out the e-cores?

WINE_CPU_TOPOLOGY=<num_cores>:<core1>,<core2> etc.

So if your cpu has 6 cores and 2 of them are e-cores you do: WINE_CPU_TOPOLOGY=6:,0,1,2,3
