i’m on Nobara project trying to run OW2 through lutris, it runs perfectly fine it’s just locked at 60 fps visually but the in game FPS counter says 300+

i’ve made sure to have the latest version of proton, disabling / turning on esync and fsync. also tried virtual desktop but the game won’t run at all if i enable that option.

first time on linux so i’m still learning!

Do you possibly have two monitors? If so, Wayland is better for multiple monitors and different refresh rates.

i’ve heard wayland has latency and forces vsync? or is that no longer the case?

If you're limited to 60hz on xorg you are already experiencing self-imposed latency, arguably worse than you'll experience on Wayland.
