Made a frankenstein monster out of the configurations until i got the near-best performance. The video shows the worst performance. When i'm idle and the frame drops, i am moving my mouse.

Hello people, it's me again.

You may remember me from 1 and 2.

I have come here again because Fedora 43 just came out, and so with it also came new Mesa drivers.

Long story short:

I checked out some scenarios to quickly test this new update while being sick, so I ain't making a long post this time.

TF2 is the main numbers test, where I discovered that now ToGL displays correctly, while for Half Life 2 I can say that it still has issues (shading on some models, like NPCs, is absent).

Here's the PC's specs:

The Rx 6650xt is arguably on par with the RTX 2070, my previous GPU, but if you go see performance per-game (thank you Hardware Unboxxed for existing) you'll see that somewhere it's higher, while somewhere else it's lower.

Source-Engine-1 games seem to run unstably on the current DirectX drivers for this GPU, so you have to keep that in mind, BUT the DXVK data shows that the GPU is more stable on W10, while also basically performing as well as the 2070 did on W10, but on Linux using the native port with the DXVK conversion.

To say it better, in terms of performance, this is the list from best to worst ON THIS SPECIFIC GPU:

1° Linux DXVK

2° Linux ToGL

3° Windows DXVK

4° Windows Dx9 (the most native that there is)
