I remember trying Nouveau in Plasma a year ago and it made all desktop effects and transitions incredibly smooth, but there was near zero gaming performance. On the other hand, the proprietary drivers gave me full gaming performance but for whatever reason always gave me a jagged and laggy desktop experience. It is still the case today with a 900 series and 20 series cards.

Same for me. Desktop buttery smooth, poor gaming performance.

Congratulations on becoming a father! Really enjoyed the video, I'm considering switching back to Linux in the near future. I've had a couple small software issues with Linux which was holding me back from switching, but it seems a lot more feasible now than the last time I've tried it.

It is, Linux advanced huge leaps forward. I had the same issue and figured out it's an excuse (in my case) and thankfully I discovered better software for my specific needs

For my use case NVK is still unusably slow in odd ways, i'd love to report it to NVK somehow but I don't know if they are ready for individual issues yet.

My experience using NVK on Wayland (although the performance difference between X11 and Wayland is not major in my experience) with a 3060 Ti is... well, performance leaves a lot to be desired. Running Skyrim at 720p, the lowest option for SE, can't even reach 60 FPS. Spyro Reignited Trilogy can go above 60 FPS when at 480p. Lil Gator Game was actually pretty good, above 60 FPS at 1080p. Baldur's Gate 3 was simply just too laggy no matter what I did, and the cursor was extremely slow. Lord of the Rings: Gollum (yes, I did buy it, the Precious Edition, mind you) was extremely slow, and then before I can even play, it runs out of video memory. This was after turning off Steam's hardware acceleration as it was taking up NVK/Nouveau's performance. With Nouveau, running Geometry Dash at 1080p can reach 165 FPS. With Zink, it could probably reach 200 FPS granted that no videos are playing and I'm not recording anything. Those benchmarks are extremely puny compared to NVIDIA's proprietary driver. My monitor is what can't keep up with the driver's performance. It's that good. I'm chalking your better performance up to you having a 4090. In both situations, NVK could be much better. Hopefully it becomes a good competitor in the future. I'm trying to not go back to the proprietary driver but it's really hard.

With the replacement of nouveau, and the open source Nvidia driver, everything will change again. If Nvidia does the things correct, in the future, an nvidia open source could be merge directly with the kernel. So, bye bye nouveau, bye bye his replacement. But, what about nvk and vulkan pro Nvidia? Maybe the pain train like AMD is profiling... I hope no 🥺

"If Nvidia does the things correct", they aren't. They are keeping the user space closed source and I don't think they are going to give that up since its full of optimizations in games that keep them ahead. I think its more likely we see an AMD like situation where its AMDVLK vs RADV and they just back both.

@@Henk717 yes. The différence is that rocm is open source and CUDA Is not. But, there is still that story with amdgpu module divided in 2 different modules (the open and the closed) It's promising that for gaming we can use an open kernel driver. But I hope that it won't break CUDA. Even if CUDA is closed, it will not change anything for users. Still need to use the proprietary dkms. I hope Airmax will update this video every 3 months to see the news;)
