    There was no sync at all in the last drivers, now we have good sync, it should be nice smooth experience once everything updates

      Heh, I tried the NVK driver just out of curiosity and it worked better than proprietary driver for Wayland. I wonder if this update would make that level of smoothness.

        NVK is great overall, for gaming eeeeh, no, sadly. I think it’s getting improvements for vulkan gaming

        But 555 beta is already much better than 550 on wayland

          Well, I tried gaming but best it can do is mid-tier gaming. Still impressive though.

          That’s good to hear. Hopefully they release final version soon.
