Game for me was unplayable in the beginning of 2024. Now on Ubuntu 24.04 + Proton 9+ I can play it even with DLSS support and more. No crashes or special parameters needed.

The average FPS was above 80 FPS with some drops here and there (I am guessing based on the scenario) to 60 FPS. This was without DLSS enable and only Ray Tracing to stress the game. If we enable DLSS, in quality mode it would jump from an average around 80 FPS to 130 FPS. And on Ultra Performance it would average around 180 FPS and even offer jumps to 220 FPS.

Game had VRS (Variable Rate Shading) OFF to stress the game even more, so we could see the Raytracing hit without any additional boosts.

Game also had Hairworks OFF because WTF. Stop adding hairworks to games. Witcher 3 also has this and nobody is playing to see how "hair works and moves".
