minus-square@nieceandtowslinkEnglish5•11 months agoNice. So I just need to update the mesa version whenever it arrives, and it should be faster now? Also, are there any disadvantages to using amdvlk instead of mesa?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish5•edit-211 months agoRadv is usually faster than amdvlk Except some edge case like ray tracing or some engine, you will get better performance with Mesa radv You can even have both of them installed and use amdvlk only for games that works better there, but really they are not too many. These are some Phoronix tests on the matter if you want to check them out. ^^
