+====== Limiting FPS when using VULKAN in Steam ======
+Part of [[:computer_science:linux:linux|Linux]]
+If you playing on Linux you might have the issue where you don't want to use VSync - mainly when running a <del>weird</del> special setup with multiple monitors, with rotations and different refresh rates - but at the same time you don't want your PC to be running that card game at 900 FPS and using Energy / putting Heat out like there is no tomorrow.
+If the game is running on VULKAN - or via the Proton compatibilty layer - you can limit the FPS by:
+  * Right Click the Game
+  * Properties
+  * Under the command to start the game
+  *
+<code>
+DXVK_FRAME_RATE=90 %command%
+</code>
+This will set the game to run at max. 90 FPS
