NVIDIA 510.47.03 is out adding Vulkan 1.3, GeForce RTX 3050 support

Quoting: dorronThe performance for God of War has dropped from 40+ to 15-25 fps...anyone having the same problem?
Im still getting between 45-60 on my system. Frametimes seem a bit more stable. That being said I updated the graphics driver and also GE proton to the latest. Strangely my Vulkan is still 1.2, and I can't seem to find how to upgrade to 1.3
Yeah, after a couple reboots now it's back to normal. No idea why...

Game devs don't seem convinced on the Steam Deck from the GDC 2022 survey

To me, the appeal of the steam deck is having a portable "console" whose game catalog doesn't have to be built from scratch every time a new device is released. When you buy the steam deck you already have all your games, when Steam deck 2 is released you'll have an even bigger catalog, etc. I'm sold on it! Shut up and take my money!

I would have loved to buy more from Feral and support them...but they were always releasing Total War games. Too many of them! Not my cup of tea.

On your hardware, it should be smooth as butter. Maybe try a different compositor option in Mint's settings? But I never had to change it from the default when I was on Mint. Perhaps it's a driver thing - your card supports Ray Tracing, so perhaps trying turning that off?

Use Steam like this to make sure everything runs on your NV gpu, instead of Intel igpu.
Thanks guys. I'll give your suggestions a go.

Best regards!
