I'm new to arch. I installed some native games from steam. They work but they are very slow to the point they are unplayable. It seems like my GPU is not used. I have nvidia. It's not drivers or shaders i tried both.

Hi, could you please post the output from the following commands

lspci
glxinfo | grep -i opengl
vulkaninfo | curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io

Then install mangohud

sudo pacman -S mangohud

In the steam launch options, add

env MANGOHUD_CONFIG=full mangohud %command%

Afterward, post a screenshot of the game running

In the future, please follow the litany https://www.co.kerr.tx.us/it/howtoreport.html

Nouveau, the open source Nvidia driver, is notorious for poor performance

#

And Intel's integrated graphics are rather weak, so it shouldn't be used either.

#

Unfortunately, using NVIDIA's proprietary driver is currently the only way to play games on a rather recent NVIDIA card under Linux.

#

You can install it as follows

sudo pacman -S nvidia

acoustic estuary Jul 8, 2023, 4:46 PM

#

i did it already

#

before

topaz eagle Jul 8, 2023, 4:46 PM

The system should then be restarted.

You did install nvidia?

yes
