Does X11 still limit max FPS to the lowest of all monitors? (biglemmowski.win)

Title, I can't switch to Wayland because of nVidia (and because I love Awesome WM).

Why can't you have Wayland with Nvidia?

  1. I love my AwesomeWM setup. Unless someone completely rewrites it, it will never work with Wayland (as far as I have read the gh issues).

  2. I need this PC to "just work" and I have seen a lot of problems with Wayland and Nvidia drivers, top-quality gaming is a secondary on this one so X11 has been the choice.
    Though I am aware stuff is getting better, should probably try it anyway
