TDW 10
Audio disorted
GOG version of game
In game setting:
Resolution: 1024x576 Vsync: Disabled Overall quality: Low
Steam OS: 60hz plugged in or 40hz on battery TDP limit: 10 Manual GPU Overclock: 800 Scale: FSR (sharpness set to 1 but my personal preference)
Verdict: Plays amazing with no major issues with performance or gameplay. Only small audio stutter but goes away after 15 to 20 seconds.
Notes: 40FPS cap set via Heroic (Seems to be a bug where the game frame rate is still uncapped if set via SteamOS)
TDP limit 10, Manual GPU Clock 700
GOG version
-Using heroic launcher, Wine GE (Ignore proton version in this report, all Wine adjustment were made in Heroic, left Steam compatibility settings alone.)
In game setting:
Resolution: 1024x576 Vsync: Disabled Overall quality: Low
Steam OS: 45 FPS/Hz capped enabled TDP limit: 9 Manual GPU Overclock: 700 Scale: FSR (sharpness set to 1 but my personal preference)
Verdict: Very playable from start to end, no major issues with performance. Had some sound stuttering, did resolve itself after 20 seconds roughly.
Notes: 45FPS cap set via Heroic (Seems to be a bug where the game frame rate is still uncapped if set via SteamOS)
If using frame generation, the frame rate is unstable and the input lag is unplayable unless you enable manual GPU clock and leave it at 1600MHz.
The game is playable at 800p, low settings with medium AA. I found Intel XeSS set to ultra quality looked better than AMD FSR. Enabling frame generation caused awful frame drops and input lag. This is easily resolved within SteamOS by enabling manual GPU clock and leave it at 1600Mhz. This greatly improved the game stability and reduced input lag. You can sometimes get kicked out of the game if your frame rate is too unstable, this can be fixed by applying a FPS cap via SteamOS to 50 or 55FPS.
