--- Comment #3 from Ash <djaz...@gmail.com> --- Installed Plasma 5.26 on EndeavourOS like I had before with 5.25.5 along with having all packages up-to-date and here's some results I gathered for X11 and Wayland along with GNOME 42.5 in Wayland using RADV. My display has FreeSync enabled and defaults are used in each DE (1080p 144Hz used) along with VRR options enabled. - - - Plasma - X11 VRR enabled in X11 AMD config. Default display/compositor settings used. Halo MCC - Proton Flicker even with vsync and 120 FPS cap. Terraria - Native Flicker mostly gone. Half-Life 2 - Native Flicker without vsync. DOOM (2016) - Proton, Vulkan Flicker without vsync. Using the mouse in the pause menu causes an FPS drop as low as 2. Final Fantasy X HD - Proton Severe menu flicker when moving the mouse and some flicker in-game with vsync on and off. The game is limited to 60. - - - Plasma - Wayland VRR set to automatic. Default display/compositor settings used. Halo MCC - Proton Flicker even with vsync and 120 FPS cap and only slightly better. Terraria - Native No flicker at all. Half-Life 2 - Native Flicker mostly gone and only really seen during level loading. DOOM (2016) - Proton, Vulkan No flicker Using the mouse in the pause menu causes an FPS drop but not always. Final Fantasy X HD - Proton Severe menu flicker when moving the mouse and some flicker in-game with vsync on and off. The game is limited to 60. - - - GNOME - Wayland Mutter VRR patch and VRR enabled in control center. Halo MCC - Proton No menu flicker, very stable. Only the slightest flicker with anything above a 120 FPS cap when loaded in or with a rare FPS drop. Terraria - Native No flicker at all. Half-Life 2 - Native No flicker at all. DOOM (2016) - Proton, Vulkan No flicker. Using the mouse in the pause menu causes an FPS drop but not always. Final Fantasy X HD - Proton No flicker at all. - - - GNOME seems to be the best experience, which is a shame since I prefer using Plasma. Halo MCC seems the most sensitive when using Plasma. Flicker is also present in Halo MCC's menus on Plasma overall. The DOOM pause menu issue seems more likely to be a Proton or RADV issue. FPS was very steady using Wayland except for the flickering in Plasma, only fluctuating heavily using X11 in Half-Life 2 without vsync. No flicker when using the desktop itself in either DE. I would assume there's some latency causing the issue or something else that I'm not facing in GNOME. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
