Not optimal gaming performance (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Basically what title says, I have a 7800XT and an 7950X3D and in games like Borderlands 2 can I barely overcome the 60FPS (with max settings and 1440p), I have tried gamescope and gamemode but to be honest something doesn't feels right, I have the feeling that Hyprland (Or the OS) is not taking full adventage of my GPU and CPU, since I been watching gameplays of the games I play using my same setup and they have better framerates than me. And something interesting is that even if my FPS are locked to 30, I have constant stutters and my GPU is between 80% and 100% even in the lobby, and this happen specifically in Hyprland, and another interesting thing is that my CPU is always between 85 C and 90 C, when its at just 40% of usage, and this again is specific of Hyprland.

Any idea? I have already experienced something like this when I used Nvidia + Wayland in the past, but I'm now in AMD + Wayland.

I am currently on ArcoLinux with the latest zen kernel, but I have used the same setup on distros like Garuda with i3 and indeed I have better performance, but I know is not that simple.

Try another compositor ... like Mutter (gnome) or labwc. They all seem to have their own weird behaviour at times, and it can be game/application specific.

What storage are you running on?

The CPU temp is by design, as far as i know. Zen4 loves to run hot. As long as you're not hitting 95, it should be good.

You could check temps and whether throttling is happening with software, just to exclude it, but it should be okay.

Lastly, Borderlands 2 can be quite the resource hog. There should be a PhysX option in the settings, can you turn that to low or off and compare results?
