Instances were few and far between but it did happen.
For smooth sailing on Pop!_OS with an NVIDIA GPU, I've found this launch option helpful. It makes sure your NVIDIA card is always used, caps frames at 60 FPS as to not use excess resources, helps DX12 run better if you choose to enable it, and enables GameMode (Must download and install through terminal first) for extra performance tweaks. Hope it helps someone; I have spent HOURS tweaking this so my game was snappy and never dared to crash. ALSO, as I'm posting this, nvidia-driver-575 was a big issue in getting above 1-5 FPS so I instead use nvidia-driver-570. Thanks for reading!
