Quoting: Pendragondang, i was hoping there'd be some info about Cyberpunk 2077
what problem are you having? its been running great with my 3090 fe.
Oh! I'm not actually having issues as I don't own the game yet ^_^ ..
I have, however been reading protondb and reading NVIDIA user experiences ..and been following Valve's
'Cyberpunk' thread on performance under Nvidia

In which they state: "The game will not currently run stably on NVIDIA, we don't advise to attempt to run it..."

I believe in the ProtonDB reports there was a comment of a certain VULKAN extension/call that was not currently implemented in NVIDIA's drivers so it was causing crashes, but I might be a little off there...

..so do we need to update the ppa repository string in order to pick this up? That seems to defeat the point of having a ppa at all..
