    Wow.

    LXQt has a nice score, specially if compared with xfce.

    Nice to see this

    I'd switch to KWin/Wayland completely, if not for this annoying bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387313

    If you are using Wine+dxvk with KWin/Wayland, you need to set

    Code:
    dxgi.numBackBuffers = 3
    In your dxvk.conf, otherwise your framerate will be capped.

    The Witcher 3 runs fine with KWin/Wayland with that setting.

    I ran some gaming tests using KWin Wayland session, and noticed a strange thing. When using wined3d, framerate is uncapped when vsync is off in games as expected. But with dxvk, vysnc option is som...

    The same behavior on gnome side. As long vulkan app plays in window mode everything is ok, if fullscreen then hang. We have to wait for new X server release, or self-build

    btw I'm courius if freesync works in xwayland?

    Thanks to the premium supporters and to Michael for these benchmarks!
    Hopefully the new year will bring me a job that would allow me to be one of the premium supporters.

    Rise of the Tomb Raider loading screen works really, really seldom on Plasma Wayland... so this needs a fix, there is as well a bug report https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107036.

    The other games that do not work on Plasma Wayland that use DXVK/Vulkan usually just work fine as long as you enforce in Kwin the window mode with boarders.

    Thanks Michael for the test! I use Plasma Wayland as well for Gaming, I do not switch anymore back to X11 and most of the things are working fine except the 2 bug reports mentioned here! I didn't know that Gnome Wayland is affected as well by these bugs. Hope xorg will release soon a bug fix release it is overdue!

    > Rise of the Tomb Raider was hanging during the loading screen when trying to run on the Wayland-based GNOME/KDE sessions.
    Michael, please try launch with this patch: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/...ge_requests/48
    XWayland should work!

    Sadly you need build whole X from git to fix this. I can't find any plans to release new version of X server.
