 ElvishJerricco | not meaningfully, no | 18:07:02 |
 @normalcea:matrix.org | Figured | 18:07:53 |
| ElvishJerricco | the main file system load that games create is sequential, and pretty much any FS can saturate a single modern SSD for sequential IO. More advanced storage, like big NVMe RAID arrays or something, might be another story, but at that point storage is not your bottlneck in gaming | 18:08:22 |

| @normalcea:matrix.org | NVK is really nice | 02:04:05 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | Dolphin-emu works very nicely | 02:04:32 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | No graphical vomit when waking up from sleep | 02:06:33 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | Which had affected my 1650 card since the 400 series drivers | 02:06:47 |

 pj | anyone else have nvidia build failures when upgrading to 25.05 ? | 18:21:01 |

anyone else have nvidia build failures when upgrading to 25.05 ? Which driver are you using? (production, beta or stable) | 21:28:39 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | I've had nvidia build failures in the past and they weren't as reproducible as far as I could tell. | 21:40:55 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | * | 21:41:03 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | Usually a network timeout from nvidia's site | 21:42:14 |

anyone else have nvidia build failures when upgrading to 25.05 ? I'm getting errors but I'm using both the beta drivers and a custom kernel so idk. | 09:20:41 |

 K900 | Probably last Mesa bump for 25.05: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/411793 | 16:42:57 |

| @normalcea:matrix.org changed their display name from normalcea to normalcea 🏳️⚧️. | 21:28:10 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | The performance of NVK isn't at the level of the proprietary driver for very demanding tasks. | 21:32:30 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | At least when I tested Hitman: WOA on my 1650 card. | 21:33:15 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | * At least when I tested Hitman: WOA on my 1650 super card. | 21:35:18 |
| K900 | 1650 Super is probably the worst case for NVK | 21:37:18 |
| K900 | It's the lowest end thing they support | 21:37:23 |
 olivia | yeah, at least last time I was looking nvk is faster on some cpu-bound tasks, but generally slower on gpu-bound | 21:49:25 |
| olivia | (and much slower on ~everything pre-turing because no reclocking) | 21:49:41 |
| K900 | I think it's also faster on newer hardware because more of it is reverse engineered by now? | 21:51:49 |
