If someone has it Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus might be a good game to test if the new drivers would offer an increase without DXVK. It's much newer than DOOM (2016).

Quoting: BeamboomI'm just curious as to exactly what the challenges they meet are...

99% sure it's some middleware plugin that's causing their problems.

Would be easy enough to check if someone owned the thing and therefore could check what additional software it uses.

They not gonna get TW3 or GTA removed, but they is dedicated to hurt VN sales for sure.

I will probably annoy someone with this, but reading that article made me literally say "what the fuck". What a bunch of drivel.

Bullshit conservative puritan lobby group from the USA that is against anything of sexual nature, even medical information.

Just completed my play through too on unsupported OS and unsupported drivers, without crashes. Sometimes after playing for a while turning with the mouse would turn very stuttery but that is apparently a game bug and not a port issue.

Quoting: LeopardIt is way better than i expected , compared to TR 2013 performance gap.

Is there anyone tried that game with 394.80 driver?

I just ran a couple benchmarks with Ubuntu 16.04 and 390.48 driver which I assume you meant.

No crashes there and performance seemed in line.

Edit: I take no responsibility for anything anywhere for any reason if something does break for you.
A list of issues encountered in testing would be nice, now it's just "it needs this because reasons".

Quoting: mike44Good but I would prefer not to install anything. Could we simply run a command before and after playing?

Yes you can.

echo performance | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo powersave | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Quoting: TheRiddickI just can't for the life of my figure out why KCD has a blank screen on loadup but I can hear the music, see and move the icon, and hear the interface beeps as I pan over them, just can't see anything.

If you are playing through Steam, try with the Steam Overlay disabled.

I seemed to get a fair bit worse performance with 3.5 but I did also finally install spectre/meltdown mitigation kernels which might account for it.

Though VSYNC is working properly now, menu performance is over a thousand frames per second!

Steam is a storefront advertising a product and its availability with those icons.

People expect (and I guess in some civilized states, even the law says) that advertisement should be factual and correct.

Therefore (I leave this empty as homework for the reader to ponder these matters further)...
