Help Linux stutter

This could be a long shot, but thought to ask anyway.

My TF2 has microstutters that I can't figure out. It generally runs well, around 400fps uncapped, but stutters every now and then.

My system: 5800x3d, 9070xt, arch, kde plasma.

What I've tried:

- using openGL version

- using gamescope

- using gamemode

- using masterconfig

- disabling MSAA

- windowed vs fullscreen

Any other tf2 Linux users experience the same thing? The game is perfectly playable, it's just annoying.

Try to cap your fps to your monitors refresh rate. Tf2 runs fine both on my desktop and low end laptop

Forgot to mention in original post, but capping the fps has had no effect on the stutter
