have you tried Wine Staging Nine from the official repos https://www.archlinux.org/packages/multilib/x86_64/wine-staging-nine/ ? If so, how does it compare to Wine Gaming Nine from AUR?
No I didn't make any comparison between them.. did you?
I actually try staging-nine out but I still use wine-gaming-nine mostly because of the steam patch.
I guess that they should perform the same or very close.
The only thing I noticed from the two PKGBUILD is that [staging-nine](https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/wine-staging-nine) uses --with-d3d9-nine while [gaming-nine](https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=wine-gaming-nine) uses --with-d3dadapter
Anyway I'll try them out as soon as 2.3 is available :)
