Just switch to CachyOS and so far I've noticed improved performance if anything (on a 3080 10gb). The latency difference between it and Windows is just unreal.
That’s the case for DX11 or older games but any DX 12 game it’s 20 to 15 percent less performance and that’s a no go for me. Once it gets addressed, then I’ll consider switching.
Maybe it's system to system, or something with the older nvidia drivers, but I've specifically noticed the improved performance in Expedition 33 and Jedi: Fallen Order which I think are both DX11/12?

Looks like they are working on it.
Damn so its gonna get even faster? My Windows install must have been more borked than I thought bc I already get performance parity at minimum. Guess I should have kept up with reformatting annually instead of biennially.
