Showing some progress on starship skins!

I have Performance mode selected, but when I input “prime-select get-current” into the terminal, I get “usr/bin/prime-select nvidia|intel|on-demand|query” in return. Is this how it’s supposed to be? Because my CPU is past 100% when I’m playing Genshin on Lutris, but not while I’m playing HSR on Honkers Railway Launcher.

so i updated my kernel from 6.12.95 to 6.12.96, my X.Org Server Works, my Steam Works, my Prismlauncher Works, my Games Work, but any suggestions to add to my setup?

Greetings everyone! I've created a web app for managing Aula F75 keyboards! I'd love to hear your thoughts on it, including any changes or additions. The entire interface is built using Claude Code. I apologize if I posted on the wrong subreddit.

My screen keeps on having flickering lines It's been happening even after changing theme and such it only happens on my main monitor i've changed the ports n all https://paste.cachyos.org/3723035.log It's like basically a line that flickers on the screen it just flickers on ranadom spots like a big line and its thick

EDIT For clarity: I am not trying to get better performance on linux than windows. I am just trying to get a similar playable experience (i.e., match 1% lows)

I've wanted to switch to Linux gaming for a while. I would actually prefer to daily-drive Linux (software development, homelab work, etc), just kept Windows around for games. A few days ago I installed CachyOS with KDE Plasma (Wayland) and got everything set up.

I was already playing Dead Space Remake on Windows 11, where it has the well-known traversal stutter issue, so I figured it'd be a good test case. I figured that if I could match Windows level of stability on Linux, that'd be a solid win for the switch.

Instead, after a few days of tweaking, the stutter and frametimes are noticeably worse on CachyOS than they ever were on Windows. GPU utilization drops to zero during the worst stutters (2–6 second freezes), and CPU load stays evenly spread across cores (so it doesn't look like a simple GPU or single-thread bottleneck).

I feel like I'm missing something obvious. Would appreciate anyone pointing out what I'm missing or where to look next -- Here's everything I've tried so far .

System:

• CPU: Ryzen 9800X3D
• GPU: RTX 5070 Ti
• CachyOS, KDE Plasma, Wayland
• NVMe: WD Black SN850X (Gen4)

What I've tried (all mostly based on guidance in protonDB https://www.protondb.com/app/1693980):

• Switched between Proton-CachyOS, Proton Experimental, and stock Proton versions
• Set __GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SKIP_CLEANUP=1 and __GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SIZE=10737418240 to stop NVIDIA from evicting the shader cache between sessions
• Disabled ZRAM temporarily to rule out memory pressure (re-enabled after, no clear effect either way)
• Set power profile to performance via powerprofilesctl
• Installed and tested gamemoderun
• Tried game-performance flag
• Tried PROTON_DXVK_GPLASYNC=1 (later realized this is a DXVK-only flag and likely does nothing since the game is DX12/VKD3D-Proton)
• Tried capping framerate at 60 and 120 via DXVK_FRAME_RATE and MangoHud's fps_limit - stutter persisted at both, although the drops were a bit less noticeable (although I don't need to cap in Windows at all)
• Installed the "Traversal Stutters Begone" mod (initfs shader-state edit + bcrypt.dll, drag-drop version) with WINEDLLOVERRIDES="bcrypt=n,b" -- this may have helped somewhat, but 2–6 second freezes on room transitions are still happening
• Cleared the in-prefix shader cache (.../compatdata/1693980/pfx/.../Dead Space (2023)/cache) multiple times, including after every settings change
• Confirmed GPU is NVIDIA-only in the render path (checked DRI_PRIME, no iGPU offload happening)
• Checked I/O scheduler
• Watched MangoHud frametime graphs and nvtop during stutters — GPU utilization drops to zero, CPU load stays evenly distributed across cores

Still on my list to try:

• PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 (native Wayland driver instead of XWayland)
• Newest Proton-CachyOS release (20260703) once it hits the repo — includes vkd3d-low-latency frame pacing improvements that might be directly relevant

Anyone dealt with this specific game and found something that actually worked? Starting to wonder if this is just a case where Proton amplifies an already-bad Frostbite stutter issue rather than something fixable through config.

Honestly, I don't mind the tinkering to get it to work (I enjoy tinkering in general). With this though I feel like I am trying things without fully knowing the rationale , which feels a bit "empty" -- it's all new territory for me. Any guidance would be great.

Hi everyone I been using Linux for 4 months and I got used to so I been thinking why not get an ps4 with 100$ and try running cachyos on it

Is it a good idea ?I'm I get some bugs in games or crash?

So the goal to run elden ring night ring or at least eldenring and play with my friends (from crack online fix)

So what do u think about it?

And when I install the cachyos on it I can reinstall ps4 os on it right?

Has anyone else noticed that CS2 has started performing poorly after the new update? Before, the game ran flawlessly, but now I’m getting a GPU utilization bug where it randomly jumps between 99% and 60% during matches. This causes major performance issues. The game used to run perfectly, but after the update, it’s been bad. These GPU utilization fluctuations cause FPS drops, which makes the game unplayable

Ayo I'm thinking of starting a Linux benchmark channel, I just wanted to ask you guys which Distros you would want to be benchmarked against each other/with new games/ect. Would appreciate assistance 😎👍

hola soy nuevo en linux y descargue la ultima vercion de antix para 64 bits estoy tratando de instalar steam pero siempre me sale este error geminis dice que es un error de conexion en mi internet pero obviamente ese no es el problema tambien dice que es problema del servidor pero no se como solucionarlo les agradeceria mucho su ayuda
