given this setup: laptop -thunderbolt-> razer core x -> xfx rx 5600 xt raw 2 -hdmi-> monitor DRI_PRIME=1 glxgears gears gives me ~300fps given this setup: laptop -thunderbolt-> razer core x -> xfx rx 5600 xt raw 2 laptop -hdmi-> monitor glx gears gives me ~1800fps this doesnt make sense to me because i thought that having the monitor plugged directly into the card should give best performance. theres another really weird issue... given setup 1, where the monitor is plugged in to the card: when i close the laptop lid, my monitor is "active" and whatnot, and i can "use it" in a sense however, heres the weirdness: the mouse cursor will move along the monitor perfectly smooth and fine, but all the other updates to the screen are delayed by about 2 or 3 seconds. that is to say, its as if the laptop is doing everything (e.g. if i open a terminal, the terminal will open, but it will take 2 seconds for me to see it) its almost as if all the frames and everything are being drawn, and the laptop is running fine and everything, but i simply just dont get to see it on the monitor, except for one time every 2 seconds. its hard to articulate, because its so bizarre. its not like, a "low fps" per se, because the cursor is totally smooth. but its that _everything else_ is only updated once every couple seconds. _______________________________________________ amd-gfx mailing list amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/amd-gfx
