I have very low FPS (12-24) on my PC in the game. My system specs: OS Arch Linux KDE, RAM 16GB, GPU RX580 4GB, CPU i5-14600KF. Playing with the default Proton hotfix, other games work fine. Also, this is very strange, because earlier I had stable 60 fps in the game, but the game often ate all my memory on descend and often crashed or was killed by os kernel. I don't know what has changed, maybe after updating drivers of graphic card it hadn't stopped eating all my ram but fps went to 10-24
#Low FPS on RX580

it does have a memory leak
also depends on which level but sounds like you have a memory leak issue
thanks, I will try that
you have an rx580 but a 14th gen intel 
I also was a bit ? But whatever
😅
Well ig you know what to upgrade next
All bets are off on Linux. Sometimes changing your version of Proton in Steam fixes the game not using the right drivers.
The game will always (afaik) stutter when dropping.
Also try swapping to Fullscreen Window or Exclusive Fullscreen. < fixes fps issue in Windows 11
Yesterday I have installed those fix, but it seems that I did something wrong on installation, so it didn't help. Today I will try again with memoryLeakFix and also will try what you say
@empty ore setting to Proton Hotfix Exeperimental fixes the problem with low FPS, but now it often crashing, seems because of extermly high ram consumption. On R8 the first level is crashing if I play with discord on background, GTFO uses 95+% of all memory on descend
it’s a memory-hungry game, especially on modded. much of the assets are stored in ram
I know, but I played on a PC with 8 GB DDR3 RAM, and it had never crashed
Neat.
Again, Linux is a wrench in the spanners.
I played most of the game with 8gb ram, a browser window open and Discord. I did notice crashing when Alt Tabbing.
The game will use all memory, even 32gb (correct me) on descent.
Try downgrading Proton to another, earlier, version.
And try playing in Exclusive Fullscreen or Fullscreen Windowed (whichever has better perf.) and NEVER TAB OUT.
If I knew what to look for, I’d ask for logs. (or some linux event viewer logs)
Hope to see you gaming. 🙂
it was my previous PC
Oh I get ya
Game shouldn’t use all of the ram on descent, when I drop without mods it’s max 6gb although I’m on windows
I played elden ring on medium-high settings with discord + browser on background. only around 85% of all ram were used
https://discord.com/channels/408196129470152705/633424549425184778 in here it’s got the log directory
anyway, your tip about proton was helpful, I also tried with different window settings (full screen, windowed, etc) seems that this could work better if configure properly, thanks
