Seems like the upcoming Linux kernel 6.14 release is going to be a nice one for gamers on Linux / Steam Deck, as the NTSYNC code has now been properly merged in ready.

The article includes a table showing games with some pretty major fps gains, but those are mostly just for wine. Using Proton there will be minimum fps gains, but it should improve compatibility.

    honestly i kinda like that approach, the devs don’t want shit code in the main codebase, but hey they can fart it out in a week so might as well provide it to those who want to use it anyways!
