Choppy Gaming at even low quality

I've been having choppy gameplay issues on my PC as of late. I've been trying to play Dying Light, and it's basically stop-motion at the default HIGH texture setting. I've tried turning it to LOW and it seems even worse. My specs are as follows: ASUS ROG Strix B450-F motherboard AMD Ryzen 5 5600G (6-core 12-thread) Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 4x 16GB = 64 GB RAM ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 4060 OC OS: Bazzite 42 (NVIDIA edition) Kernel: 6.15.9-116 I've done the full update just today in the hopes that it will fix something, but it's been pretty glitchy Based on my GPU alone, it should be running at ultra high with no issues whatsoever, but it's skipping along and looking like a clipshow half the time. Do I have to do any special provisioning to unlock the GPUs full power on linux? I thought having the latest drivers should've done the trick. Would very much appreciate any help with this issue. Thanks

Hey man, can you try going into steam, right click dying light in your library, then click properties. Then, a window should pop up with tabs like general, compatibility, updates, etc. on the left hand side, click on the compatibility tab. Then, can you click force the use of a specific steam play compatibility tool in that window. Then a new dropdown should appear, where you should select "Proton Experimental". That should download the windows version of the game and run it through proton, which works much better for this specific game then their native linux port which usually gets installed by default
