Also I don't mess with the graphics settings at all, I'm using what the game defaults to, which sometimes are very low graphics settings.
(Also you need Proton Experimental for this game, you have to right click on the game select properties and choose Proton Experimental in the compatibility tab)(you can search in the articles on the site, on how to install proton experimental)

i suppose i could try ubuntu with wayland since i did ad wayland to my garuda kde, maybe thats the magic trick

im going to tell everyone what i do to game, and you can feel free to tell me i missed something, im going to write what i did for kubuntu and mint which are similar, and easier to write and not as in depth as arch is :)
ok, after installation, i first install drivers using lutris docs guide
https://github.com/lutris/docs/blob/master/InstallingDrivers.md
then i install wine again using lutris docs guide
https://github.com/lutris/docs/blob/master/WineDependencies.md
then i use the guide from feralinteractive for gamemode
https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode
then i install steam
install the game through steam and thats pretty much it, i do some other stuff like installing a browser, discord, spotify, and any other software i need, and i spend alot of time customizing the looks of kde, i didn't do that in the video since i only installed arch to see if i could get it to to run without stutter but no luck so no need to keep arch installed.
if i missed anything please please let me know this is driving me crazy, all my other games run fine its just this game which is weird.
nope ive ran it a few times and still same issue, i was going to try other kernals but it seems i got banned for 24 hours lol so cant try anything new till then

But if you are running it on Arch based distros, which normally have more updated drivers, then I don't know what is your problem. As I said for me it runs fine with no tweaks needed with proton experimental. Maybe it's a regression in the Amdgpu driver but only affecting RDNA2 GPUS, could be that once I hit a performance bug on Desperados III that only happened on RDNA1 Gpus.
Maybe trying installing amdvlk driver is worth a shot. (it's an alternative driver to the default one for amd Gpus)
here you can download a deb package...
https://github.com/GPUOpen-Drivers/AMDVLK/releases/tag/v-2021.Q3.7
simply install with dpkg -i file.deb
then you have to add this to the launch options of the game
VK_ICD_FILENAMES="/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/amd_icd64.json" %command%
installing MANGOHUD could help too since that way it tells you what driver you are running, amdvlk or radv.
if it is really a bug on RDNA2 driver then you might want to report it, since the steam deck runs on RDNA2, I think that valve devs will look into this with a lot of interest.
(Also your card is a little faster than mine so it's not a problem with the hardware.)
