How to setup OpenMW for modern Morrowind on Linux / SteamOS and Steam Deck
How to install Hollow Knight: Silksong mods on Linux, SteamOS and Steam Deck
Here my results.
System:
Linux Ubuntu 20.04.1 kernel 5.8.7 + Mesa 20.3
Windows 7 + AMD driver 20.8.3
i5-2500 + RX 5600 XT overclocked
I had a tinker last night and overclocked the RTX 3090 to gain 5% over the stock 3090 performance :woot: I also tuned Ubuntu 20.04.1 which delivered an additional +40 points on top of the overclocks alone, and game-mode was enabled.
Intel Core [email protected] all core and DDR4@3600Mhz CL16 with tuned sub memory timings

Nice beast btw! Just insane power usage.

my 1080Ti gets a bit more with memory OC... iirc with +150 core and +300 mem i only got around 5450 and with +80 core and +900 mem i got like 5600 something. Anyway its a fine balancing act, to fit into the powerlimits with all the OCs, so it wont start throttling.

Which is not that much better than my previous CPU (R3 1200).
Clearly a GPU-bottlenecked benchmark as during the test it showed 100% GPU utilization almost all the time.
