This video is an in-depth anaylsis (at least in the intro island) of performance of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of The Kingdom. IF YOU DON’T CARE TO WATCH SETTINGS ARE TIME STAMPED AT THE END.
Enjoy!

Latest version of Cryoutilities @CryoByte33 (github.com/CryoByte33/steam-deck-utilities)
VRAM Buffer set to 4GB

I won't list the mods as they are constantly being updated. Quick Google/Reddit search should have you sorted though!
Note, one mod out there has the FPS mod and dynamic mod tied into one mod.
Shaders can be found online, the more you play, the more you will build your own (i.e. smoother gameplay). Shaders were deleted between running different versions of Yuzu.
