Performance issues persisting across Arch distro installs but not Windows

[abumaster]

I experience insanely low fps (in the ~60 range) on osu! Lazer even though both the game and Nvidia say it's running at 900fps+. It worked fine a few days ago, and I suddenly started having performance issues on many games. Also games on Wine running at 5 seconds per frame (yes, one frame every 5 seconds). Wine ran perfectly back then. I even renstalled Linux and Windows. Win10 runs perfectly now, as it had lag too. However Linux is the same. I stayed on Arch (I used Garuda but switched to Arco). How valve pls fix?

Check your updates
via rip in a terminal

we saw an update of mesa

what if you downgrade mesa

anything else that could have affected your fps?

Downgrading mesa didn't work, neither did downgrading Nvidia drivers. I don't know what could be affecting it.

You haven't explicitly mentioned.
Are you using proprietary drivers or open source ?

The 545xx drivers appear to have known regression issues with fluctuating fps levels - this has been reported across different environments.

Downgrading to 535xx should resolve the issue.

Downgrading to 535xx did fix native games, but not Wine.

I'm not a gamer. So can only provide some generic troubleshooting steps.

If the downgrade to NVIDIA 535xx helped stabilize the fps levels at a desktop environment level, but does not seem to solve the issues in Wine.
This suggests that this is no longer a driver related performance issue.

- What has changed on your system; did you upgrade Wine ? / did you update the Kernel / are you experiencing low fps on certain games ?
- It maybe a regression in the Wine src code, the latest version is at v9.1 - so does a downgrade to v9.0 help ?
