i’ve heard wayland has latency and forces vsync? or is that no longer the case?

nope, vsync is the first thing i turn off in any game i play

yup, display still at 144hz but i still only see overwatch at 60hz

good to know for future use in case i want to distro hop, doubtful tho since nobara is running smooth for me so far. enjoying my linux experience!

it was an nvidia driver problem, i have resolved the issue by editing the boot in grub by pressing e and setting ‘nomodeset quiet’ and reinstalling the propriety drivers upon boot

it was actually the nvidia drivers that was in the install, had to modify the boot so i can download and install the proprietary drivers. everything is running perfectly smooth now :) i was using a 16gb USB

already had it disabled; guess i’ll just look into another distro

will look into it, thanks for the suggestion
