Screen Tearing in Proton Games with Wayland, KDE and Nvidia

Hey,

I just came from Void Linux with the exact same setup, and everything was working quite well. However I wanted to try Arch Linux and set it up so far.

When I tried some gaming i experienced really bad screen tearing in the upper half of my monitor.

I have a Dual Monitor with different refresh rate (144hz/60hz) setup, but as far as i know this should only be a problem on X11.

I run the latest NVIDIA 545 drivers on Plasma (Wayland)

Is there any way to fix this ?

Please feel free to ask for more information, as i don't really know what else information i could give u.

I would be very happy if anyone could help me here.

There are multiple things you can try.

1. Try diffrent proton version preferably download yourseld Glorious Eggroll Proton
2. Try this as a launch parameter: PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%
3. Try setting GL_VRR_ALLOWED=0 %command%
