I came upon this post, but unfortunately I can’t respond to it due to its age: [Framework 13 (Ryzen AI 370) – Gaming performance? - #2 by BusyBoredom](https://community.frame.work/t/framework-13-ryzen-ai-370-gaming-performance/72637/2)

How would I go about applying the first suggestion on this list?

Any other tips for a linux/framework gamer noob? I’m on BazziteOS and use both desktop and gaming mode frequently.

Gamescope has lots of options, and what options are available kind of depend on what DE you’re running. I’m on Arch Linux with KDE Wayland.

So, I would probably do something like:

```bash
gamescope -W 2880 -H 1920 -w 1800 -h 1200 -F fsr --fsr-sharpness 10 --adaptive-sync -f --force-grab-cursor --

```

I need the `--force-grab-cursor` as gamescope is really ass with handling cursor input.

Would I enter this into the terminal, or “launch options” of a steam game?

You can think of this command as a “wrapper”. You need to put this in the advanced properties launch options of every steam game you wanna play.

If you want something easing, you can create the folder `~/.local/bin` to put custom commands in, and make the following file at `~/.local/bin/gamescope-wrapper`

```bash
#!/usr/bin/env bash
gamescope -W 2880 -H 1920 -w 1800 -h 1200 -F fsr --fsr-sharpness 10 --adaptive-sync -f --force-grab-cursor -- "$@"

```

Then you would do `chmod 755 ~/.local/bin/gamescope-wrapper` to make the file executable. Then, you need to add the directory `~/.local/bin` to your `$PATH`. This is so you can type `gamescope-wrapper` instead of `~/.local/bin/gamescope-wrapper` every time you want to use this script.

Then, you go to the game you wanna run this with, go to the advance properties menu, and go to the launch commands. In the box, you’d type `gamescope-wrapper %command%`

Excellent, these instructions are very clear. I’ll be sure to follow them after I upgrade my framework. Thanks so much!
