Sorry in advance if this is the wrong place to ask.

Hello, everyone. I've recently gotten back into NixOS and immediately noticed that NVIDIA is buggy. (no surprise there) I've searched far and wide and it seems that no one else has these bugs? (I am most likely wrong though) I've gone mad trying to fix these two.

Here's some extra info:

This is not distro exclusive, i've tried on fresh installs too.

I am using 565 with an RTX 3060 gpu.

I am on wayland/hyprland.

Curiously enough, this doesn't happen on native games such as Metro 2033 or HOI4, only on proton.

apologies for the shitty gameplay and recording, and thanks.

I've got a 4070ti running most recent nvidia-open on arch and haven't had that happen, but I don't tend to run with vsync often.

What proton version are you running this on? Had some weird almost microstutters in cutscenes playing DA:Veilguard through moonlight on my steamdeck. Swapping to experimental resolved that, think it was one version of proton-ge that I had the issue with.

Do you have vrr enabled by any chance?

Are you running through gamescope? Have had grief with gamescope and nvidia, but that was mostly with hdr.

Many old games have vsync enabled by default :/ happens with all proton versions (I use ge), don't use vrr or gamescope, but I'll try on experimental again JIC if I was wrong (god I hope, lol) thanks for the tip.

edit: experimental didn't work either :(
