Hello.
Sorry for the potentially newbie question but I thought someone here might know.
When I play games via steam and proton when I am logged into a wayland session my 5060ti stops pulling its full wattage and wont pull more than 50w. It works fine if I am logged into x11 maxing out at around 180w.
I have a desktop btw and it should be in performance mode anyway in power management.
I was wondering is this a known issue and is there anything I can do about it?
Thanks in advance.
Which desktop environment are you using?
Sorry for managing not to mention it.
KDE plasma 6.4.2 and framework 6.16.0
A possible compositor interaction or difference with GPU power state issue compared with Plasma X11. It might be useful to check if the NVIDIA GPU is sitting in a low power state during gameplay using the nvidia-smi command.
Just to help others comment further here, please also share the results from
inxi -GSaz
zypper se -si nvidia mesa
Thankyou.
Since increasing the power limit with LACT (a fan control and overclocking tool) it doesn’t appear to happen anymore.
nvidia-smi confirms p0, previously it said p3.

Mod edit: Commands and output as preformatted text
Sorry for my stupidity but I logged out of x11 and logged back into x11.
now for Wayland the information is as follows
nvidia-smi confirms that the game is holding at p0.

But it seems increasing the power limit without otherwise changing clocks in LACT may have sorted the problem out.
That is good.
Given that increasing the power limit in LACT improved things, it sounds like the GPU was being power constrained rather than not boosting properly.
So this is effectively resolved for you?
Yes it seems to be. It was not truly a big deal anyway as it worked fine in X11. But X11 is going away some day. But setting the power limit manually certainly seems to have fixed it.
Thanks for your time.
