Hi guys. I’ve been having more or less the same problem. I didn’t know if I should open a new topic or take advantage of this one, sorry about that. It has nothing to do with i3, in my case, because I’ve already tested every possible desktop (for other reasons). I also tried the solution presented here but it doesn’t seem to apply to my case. I have extremely low FPS in games like CSGo and Albion. I’ll put the output of inxi -Fxxxza --no-host :
