Why assume my comparison is random? Is it not possible that I reached this conclusion after using the same distribution with different desktops, as well as trying multiple distributions?
Let me briefly summarize my experience using Linux. I used the KDE desktop on Manjaro and added the 'drm modeset=1' setting because without it, the screen could only run at 60Hz. Then, I reinstalled the system and switched to the GNOME desktop on Manjaro. Of course, to make GNOME's Wayland also run at 240Hz refresh rate, I had to add 'drm modeset=1' as well. But the end result was that the GNOME desktop was smooth and fluid. At this point, I was already confused about the KDE desktop, but Manjaro's Nvidia driver version was 550, so I couldn’t directly conclude that it was the KDE desktop's fault.
Next, I heard that Cachy OS has a lot of performance optimizations, so I reinstalled Cachy OS, also using the KDE desktop. At this time, the Nvidia driver was version 560, but the result was still stuttering. I reinstalled Cachy OS and chose the GNOME desktop, which was again much smoother than the KDE desktop. I admit, I had a lot of free time during the holidays, but all these tests indicate that KDE's desktop performance optimization is poor. Otherwise, why does the GNOME desktop have no issues?"
