What's that driving game?
It makes me nervous that they call X11 legacy when AFAIK they may never implement window shading on Wayland.

@[email protected] @[email protected] I almost switched to KDE from XFCE because I wanted a desktop with a bit "more" but it ran like crap on my PC. Idk if it is because of KDE issues or my GTX 960 is just too old.

I'd say the GTX 960 is unlikely to be the bottleneck. Plasma really does not need a recent GPU.

@leopold That's the thing though, I built the current PC during the pandemic and crypto craze. Everything is relatively new, except the GPU, because I couldn't afford one, but I needed a better CPU for audio recording and editing.

When was the last time you used KDE? It's been able to run on low-spec machines since KDE4 which about a decade old

Not the GPU itself but rather its drivers. Plasma 6 flies on potatoe laptop integrated graphics in power saving mode.
