--- Comment #6 from Aru Sahni <arusa...@gmail.com> ---
After some investigation, I don't think this is a KDE bug: it's a Linux 6.9 +
Power Profiles Daemon 0.20 feature.

* Kernel 6.9 introduced the `panel_power_savings` sysfs entry for AMD graphics
(see
https://lore.kernel.org/amd-gfx/0b94b25a-9ffa-41a5-b931-ad84e1892...@amd.com/T/#m079d7c357626cf3a80cd9ba6239b3fe4fcf8937e
)
* PPD 0.20 added support for this:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/upower/power-profiles-daemon/-/commit/41ed5d33a82b0ceb7b6d473551eb2aa62cade6bc

The values range from 0 (no power savings) to 4 (extreme power savings). PPD
itself writes 0 for performance, 1 for balanced, and 3 for power save.
(https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/upower/power-profiles-daemon/-/blob/main/src/ppd-action-amdgpu-panel-power.c?ref_type=heads#L148-159)

By writing `1` or `0` to the sysfs entry you should be able to restore the
previous visual fidelity. I'm not yet sure how to make this the default, but
this is now tolerable.
