Performance tuning

GlouOS is tuned for gaming out of the box, but a few tools help you squeeze out more and keep an eye on performance.

Game Mode

Game Mode applies performance optimisations on demand while a game is running, then restores your normal settings when you are done.

MangoHud overlay

MangoHud shows an on-screen overlay with frame rate, frame times and hardware usage so you can see exactly how a game is performing.

Tuning tips

  • Keep your drivers up to date for the latest game fixes.
  • Use a supported Proton version for the smoothest experience.
  • Close background apps for the most consistent frame times.
