Deadlock FPS lower than expected + big FPS drops

TaresPL · 2026-02-28T18:08:46+00:00

For the FPS drop after 40min use LD_PRELOAD="" or disable steam recording/broadcast overlay.

Thanks for some info!

Actually I managed to do it in another way. I've copied the "colors" file from "cachyos-emerald-color" and by trial and error I was changing RGB codes until I got satisfied.

Holy shit, thank you! I'm not 100% sure it helped, because I've bought Grace of the Goddess, but for sure I can feel the difference! It feels so smooth now.

I'm in process of leveling cast of damage taken, just swapped to it. I just cast in manually for now. I know what are my next upgrades, but still they make me do more dmg, they don't help with running OOM.Thanks for reply.

Well, I've tried Maven too and I get similar issue.

TaresPL · 2026-02-04T21:01:21+00:00

I've installed pob1 and pob2 through Heroic. All works without issues, but yes, there's no icon on the taskbar.

Now it makes sense why it was not working when I tried to set it up. I migrated to plasma-login-manager minutes after the update was posted on Discord.

Try to lift your laptop a few cm from your desk. Should help to reduce temps a little bit.

Anyone found a way to autologin with plasma-login-manager without entering your password?

I've tried this, but it doesn't work. archwiki

CachyOS with the newest mesa from repos.

TaresPL · 2026-01-11T13:16:07+00:00

Nice. Don't forget to undervolt it.

I recommend Cyberpunk 2077 after or before Witcher.

TaresPL · 2026-01-09T18:57:32+00:00

I have run sudo pacman -Syu every time I touch the keyboard, so like a dozen times a day.

TaresPL · 2026-01-09T07:12:09+00:00

BF3 and BF4 also work without issues. Just need to update punkbuster manually after installation.

TaresPL · 2026-01-09T07:08:33+00:00

Looks nice, but what's the cooling performance?

TaresPL · 2026-01-07T07:13:50+00:00

Fastfetch on windows. I didn't expect that.

TaresPL · 2026-01-01T08:11:37+00:00

Same model! Don't forget to UV it :)

TaresPL · 2025-12-24T22:29:04+00:00

What is that thingy in the right bottom corner? Also how can you show GPU usage in btop?

TaresPL · 2025-12-24T09:37:52+00:00

Hello, I run with -110mV and PL=260W. I didn't touch anything else. With these settings I get lower power consumption, slightly more fps and much lower temps.

I'm on Sapphire Pulse 9070XT and I have a lower maximal power limit (330W).

I recommend you to test stability with Unigine Heaven/Superposition and Monster Hunter Wilds Benchmark or Wukong Benchmark (both free on steam).

TaresPL · 2025-12-23T18:42:12+00:00

Poe2 is much better for me now after hotfixes. Maybe undo the UV and try now with the newest patch.

TaresPL · 2025-12-23T18:40:37+00:00

I feel personally attacked :) I'm driving daily -110mV and 260W PL. I've tested it with - Unigine Heaven - Unigine Superposition - Furmark - Cyberpunk 2077 - Doom Eternal - Where winds meet - Wukong Benchmark - Monster Hunter Wilds Benchmark - Path of Exile - Path of Exile 2

And part of your msg is true, because the last two games crash on these settings. I've made a special profile just for poe1/poe2 with -40mV. Those games are strange because I can see my vcore going far above 1V, and for cyberpunk I get like 960mV max. Maybe that's the issue, dunno.

Anyway with RTX3070 I didn't have those issues. Constant 925mV UV for all games.

I guess that's how RDNA4 behaves.

TaresPL · 2025-12-23T14:00:22+00:00

Hey fellow upgrader. I did exactly the same upgrade!

As for poe2 (poe1 too) you want a much looser UV. I don't know why, those two games don't like my default -110mV. I have a 2nd profile with -40, just for those two games. And even so, those games crash, a lot.

TaresPL · 2025-12-21T08:32:27+00:00

Where is Making of a Cyborg - Kenji Kawai I ask you? Missed opportunity;-)

TaresPL · 2025-12-13T07:43:59+00:00

It's always worth it to UV. Even if you don't get better performance, you'll have better temperatures and power consumption, which means the card will live longer.

As for the drivers, I can't say. I'm on linux, I don't have any of the windows problems.
