and has not been updated since last July. No security updates, etc. Time to move on.

LineageOS is pretty good, I'm running the latest 15.1 and it works fine.
Los 15.1 is good but the performance isn't as great, for gaming i see a difference on PN is performs a whole lot better. That's for me anyway, it varies on people's opinion

No complaints about Validus' performance. The ROM is a bit hidden (not in device specific dev forums, GZR have their own subforum), I recommend to try it. Link for quick access is in my sig.

PN doesn't provide Oreo goodies for us anymore, so I'd skip that if you want latest features and security patches.

Can you do the geekbench 4 test :p. Highest I got was about 1100 for single and 3000 for multi that's on PN rom.

Here you go, screenshot attached. Not that I care about those benchmarks at all, I use my own eyes to benchmark stuff. :p I was a long-time user of PN on Nougat, but really it became slow and sluggish if I didn't clean flash like once a month or so. Haven't cleaned Validus for months since moving and it's still as snappy as ever. I think it has a lot to do with Oreo's superior memory management, but still even if PN might have produced better benchmark scores (I don't know, I got over this fad years ago so I didn't benchmark it), then that means absolutely nothing to me as it isn't representative of real-world usage.

The reason why I'm looking for a best performing ROM is for gaming, I wanna play pubg and the coming Fortnite without too much of performance issue

Off-topic, but I recommend playing PUBG through MEmu. :p It's an Android emulator for PC. Basically you play it on your computer with mouse and keyboard like any other game, while easily pwning those on mobile because obviously it's a lot harder for them to aim and move at the same time on their small screens with inferior controls. :D It's funny, feels almost like cheating.
