Hey everybody,
it seems that after a kernel upgrade the gpu performance in games are very slow. It drops to 20fps. I have see that in KDE I can set the energy profile to “Leistung” and after that I have 30fps. But I think that is also to slow. In steam with the “Leistungsüberwachung” I can see the gpu has 41% or so. And the CPU 3%.

Before I have execute zypper dup yesterday the performance was very good.
Has anybody in idea?
There have been some recent performance regressions reported recently.

Also, don’t forget to create a new user and see if the problem exists there as well. Sometimes, stale config files can create unexpected issues.
