In many games it does, but I'm not sure this comparison is a good example of that, as it shows persistent CPU stutter on Linux. With those spikes, Windows would be the smoother experience even if the average frametimes are slightly better on Linux.

    As I... think has been mentioned elsewhere in this thread, you can run Gamescope + Proton + Wayland, and force the refresh rate.

    You can do this with xrandr or sometimes some games actually expose it as a thing you can directly configure.

    Presumably, you could set this to, for this example, 90, and probably help out the frame timing variance a bit.
