One cool thing about D9VK is that it can be much faster than native D3D9 in CPU bound scenarios. E.g. Borderlands 2 profits by about ~50% more fps.

No, you can't. It's not possible for drivers to force AA into complex renderers, apart from simple low-quality post processing.
While you can set...

[aufkrawall]

You can't override AA in any modern game on Windows either.
Though it would be nice to have it for old games in Wine, especially SSAA.

Will the session not crash anymore with 3.36 when killing/crashing xwayland?

The bluntness of that trolling attempt of yours is so grotesque, it can probably be considered art....

I think he's too harsh to himself, gaming in Wine + DXVK often works more reliably for me than native Windows gaming. Especially DXVK hardly ever is the...

There was an issue in xwayland which got fixed in git-master. Though you might also need to add

Thanks for mentioning, didn't know that one (though happy with CLI stuff).
Looks and performs actually better than AMD's Windows driver UI, really...

Why do we need to wrap up lots of debug options into a GUI?
The interesting things are FreeSync, vsync and anisotropic filtering, the rest hardly...

[aufkrawall]

Perhaps someone can write a patch for you so that KWin spoofs it was using Vulkan, it would totally do the trick....

[aufkrawall]

There was at least one fix to address this, so I think you don't have to worry about this anymore.
I'm btw. completely free of hassle with RadeonSI...

[aufkrawall]

Even if that was true, it wouldn't change the fact that the breakage is inside KWin.
Just read some comments of tildearrow's fork fixing it for...

It's worse: You consider the stutter normal.
Sorry, dude. I've tested this extensively on various AMD & Intel GPUs and distributions, there...

[aufkrawall]

At this occasion: The reported high idle clocks without intel-pstate=powersave are completely out of reality too. The CPU (at least Skylake and newer)...

Linuxxx Perhaps you encounter some specific bug? I can't feel nor measure a difference between intel_pstate=performance, acpi-cpufreq-performance and...

I can't judge what specifically is broken inside KWin, so I can't establish connections if any report might be a duplicate. I can only...

As a side note: default mitigations + intel-ucode butcher my octane 2 score in Firefox by 25% on my 6700k. To hell with this crap...

ngraham (sorry for ringing you like this each Sunday ): Any news about fixed KWin vsync on Xorg? It's really terrible that you can't recommend Plasma...

[aufkrawall]

At least it still causes stutter in mpv here....
