Hello, The game performance is very slow on any NVIDIA video card but it’s running great on AMD. There is a topic on GitHub where you can read all NVIDIA users have low performance ~15-25 FPS no matter the video settings. I’m with 1080 Ti but there are reports for different newer cards which perfor…

v. 535.104.05 - the problem is still here.

Pascal gpu’s are known to be performing very badly with vkd3d-proton titles, even Ada-Ampere has perf losses compared to native but Pascal perf loss is at extreme levels. So not a thing that Nvidia will solve, if they were to do that they would do that in the last 2-3 years.

I don’t think that’s relevant here for It’s known to perform poorly on all NVIDIA cards on Linux. For example I can run Jagged Alliance 3 on 1080p everything on Ultra at stable 60FPS. I completed Hogwarts Legacy with the same settings and without any problems at all. The same aplies to Horizon Zero …

Then you might wanna try this but not sure if that can help here. [image] Doom Eternal not utilizing VRAM Linux __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=kek %command% Can you put this as launch option and see if this has an effect on perf?

Unfortunately it doesn’t help at all.

This also seems to affect Halo Infinite too EDIT: in halo infinite some textures even go pitch black … as showcased in the video I uploaded.

I have filed a bug 4260405 internally for tracking purpose. Shall try to replicate issue locally and will keep updated on the same.

@mozo Can you run benchmark on Forspoken game and share FPS value. I tried on my local setup, and it was varying from 13-20 most of the time.

Yep, same here. And in real gameplay it stutters like hell.
