I'm having FPS drops to half when I'm playing over a hour. I have try to enable and disable vertical sync and Nvidia reflex without success.

I'm playing 4:3 in one monitor and obviously without Proton (because I read that your account could be banned)

I have tried playing natively and with Linux Steam Runtime enabled, I tried to wait for vulkan shaders... Nothing.

It's strange because if I reboot the game its works perfectly again.

Someone knows some start parameter or something??

If it happens after an hour of playing, it sounds like a heat issue. Restarting the game drops the load for a minute allowing things to cool.

I don't think so. Most of the generated heat is dissipated instantly. The processor warms up until either it's running at the necessary load or reached its max temp. The temps could increase slightly over time due to the air / liquid temperature (and non heat generating parts of the computer) heating up but that won't dissipate in a minute

I restart the game in less than 10 secs and works perfectly. I dont think that heat affects but great idea
