No problems at all.  World of Warcraft and most of my steam games run great.  Ubisoft games as well... all good!

did a three hour raid last night in WoW and not a single hiccup, no lag, just smooth as butter! I was running the new Proton G9-23.  Works perfectly!

I like it a lot...it's more for testing for the guy that does all the work on the new GNOME iso, but he is doing  a fantastic job!  I really like it a lot.
