Poor Diablo 4 performance - Lemmy.world

I was wonder if anyone else is experiencing poor performance on Diablo 4 similar to mine. I’m new to Linux gaming, so pardon my ignorance. Im running an nvidia 3090 on fedora 38. I have two monitors in my setup, which I suspect could be causing me some problems with gaming. I tried tried Lutris and stream but had similar results. They both seem to be capped at 60fps regardless of vsync being disabled. Also there is a horizontal glitchy/tearing bar about 1/3 of the way down across the screen when playing. I hover around 150fps in windows, but can barely maintain 60 on Linux with consistent frame drops. For me it’s pretty unplayable. Just looking for some advice on things I could try to improve the situation, as I’m loving Linux otherwise.

This sounds like a common issue with Nvidia cards and people running dual monitors with different refresh rates.

Here’s a link discussing it forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/…/6

[linux+xorg] multiple monitors: limits the framerate of faster 120/144hz monitors to 60hz

Hello there. Good news for a change: Re-tested this bug today on latest linux 5.3.1 kernel and nvidia 435.21 binary (closed) drivers. And it seems like there might be some improvement now. What I noticed this time: Enabled 120hz overclock on my high refresh 120hz monitor, and rebooted this monitor. It is my primary display. Opened nvidia settings (“NVIDIA X Server Settings”) Set the frame rate of this dispaly in there to 120hz with force full composition pipeline both on Frame rate was initi...

Ahh thanks this looks promising. The only thing that I don’t get from that article is where they talk about the nvidia gui settings. I’m not seeing that. Is that the same as the nvidia xserver application?
Yes, Nvidia X Server Settings
