Can y please elaborate? Y applied all staging patches or only the 4 that are important for TW3? And most interested in this:
Modified 0001-wined3d-Do-not-pin-large-buffers.patch to use 0x80000 instead of 0x10000
What does it make exactly? And improves it performance in general e.g. for Vega too?
Thx
Edit: looked into the patch. Its easy to change. I will try it too.
Ok, understand that. My installation gave me some heartstopping moments - I put the card in the case after installation and forget to connect the power cables, turn on and nothing :P

Good tests however must wait for staging 2.21
And other important thing is nvidia cards depend of higher frecuency and higher ipc cpu aka ryzen is slower (still oc)
i5 8600K at 4.5ghz or more (5.0ghz will be ideal) is highly recommended

You can use higher frequency RAM for improving that.

Memory improve some, in coffelake is notorious between ddr4 2666mhz and ddr4 3200mhz
But in wine cpu frecuency have final word in performance (especially on nvidia gpus), especially coffelake at 4.8ghz or more
Ideal cpu maybe appears when a cpu can give 300 points* in cinebench R15 single thread
*80-90% more single thread performance than ryzen at 4.0ghz
Maybe some day wine left single thread performance dependency

I mean IPC / thread performance and for Ryzen, not for Intel. I was commenting on "aka ryzen is slower". Faster RAM makes inter-core bus be faster.

As commented before memories help but in wine dont offer same improve compared cpu frecuency (single thread performance is more important, ryzen lack of good single thread and higher frecuencies)
For before cited reason intel at more 4.8ghz or more is highly recommended, however before cited cpus is very good but is dont be ideal cpu for wine (single thread performance)

Not sure exactly but since it was one of the key patches I tried running with same, smaller and larger.
For my particular setup looks like 0x80000 gave a bit more performance.
Your experience might vary due to different GPU?
So, pure experimentation without knowing what I am doing. :-)

It changes the limit at which the buffer is not pinned. As the comment there says:
If you increase it, it will not pin only even larger buffers. I.e. increasing it means basically further reducing cases when the patch is used.
