the only reason I use computer is games and a bit of documents editing but I lose half of my fps when I played on Linux which is a big deal when all I have is a potato laptop
You might be using the wrong driver or something. Usually Linux has at least comparable framerates to Windows, if not faster.
Don’t manually install any drivers, the ones in the kernel by default are ideal. Maybe a power related setting like cpu governor. Newer dxvk versions don’t have the shader compilation lag that previously existed either

No it’s not, I have low end Ryzen apu I used both AMD pro and amdgpu driver and I still lose 40-60% of the performance

FWIW I had to install newer drivers from a PPA because the latest stable Mint didn’t support my RX 7900 XT.
Shouldn’t be a problem anymore, was only an issue with firmware when the card was super new
This was literally last week
What version of mint? Why are they so incredibly behind? Hasn’t been an issue on other distros for like a year
The latest LTS, currently 21.3
Mints default channel is based on Ubuntu LTS
So is my distro pop os 22.04, no issues
I used Endeavors OS out of the box driver and manually install driver, this is my post relating to this issue https://lemmy.ca/post/15927798
What distro were you using? This sounds like a possible Wayland issue
It’s Endeavour OS
