What’s the current landscape like for gaming with KDE Wayland? I’ve heard that recently VSync can be disabled and that Wine has better support for Wayland nowadays.

Whats your experience like with this setup?

    I really struggled with it. I couldn’t game in 4K because of Wayland’s scaling. It was either actually use my gaming monitor for its intended purpose or have the rest of my GUI be too small to use. (The lack of FreeSync Pro support was also a major downer, so to get the most out of my monitor, I have to use Windows.)

    This was about a month ago, so I am not fully up-to-date.

      In System Settings under Display Configuration, set “Legacy Applications (X11): Apply scaling themselves”. That should allow you to actually use 4k resolution in games.
