GPU Underutilization Issue with “The Elder Scrolls IV: REMASTERED”

Hey everyone,

I’m having a compatibility issue with “The Elder Scrolls IV: REMASTERED” on my Linux system. My NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU is not being fully utilized, which is causing poor performance and stuttering during gameplay.

System Info

  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU
  • Driver Version: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 570.133.07
  • Kernel Version: 6.13.9-103.bazzite.fc42.x86_64
  • Proton Version: proton-experimental

Symptoms

The GPU is running at around 90W out of 175W, leading to suboptimal performance and low frame rates.

I’m seeing similar power usage on my 5090, seems limited to ~370W rather than using all 575W
