 |
|
Gaming on Gentoo with Steam has been working well until yesterday when I updated my BIOS to mitigate the Intel 13/14gen degradation issue. I'm now having microstuttering or hitching while gaming, specifically in Graveyard Keeper. (I've also noticed loading screen issues in Cuphead.) Following the BIOS update I did take some time to retune my undervolt, which was stable in Win11 testing. I have tried Graveyard Keeper in Win11, and it runs well with no stuttering. Cinbench R23 and 3DMark Timespy results in win11 were similar to those with the previous BIOS. I have not updated anything on my Gentoo machine since the BIOS update.
Here's what I've tried, none of which reduced the stuttering in gentoo:
Enable disable Retuneable BAR
Enable disable hyperthreading
Enable disable AMD Freesync
Tried all of my old undervolt settings (all stable in windows with Cinebench R23, OCCT CPU and linkpak tests)
Reduced my mouse polling rate to 125Hz with piper
Changed monitor refresh from 120hz to 60hz
Deleted the shader cache for this game
Checked game file integrity (ok)
I have not noticed anything amiss in dmesg or Xorg logs.
Any thoughts? I'd rather not roll back the BIOS.
System info: Intel 13600K, MSI Z690 Pro Wifi, 32GB GSKILL 5600, AMD RX 6700XT |
