Comment on RIP Windows: Linux GPU Gaming Benchmarks on Bazzite
MrTolkinghoen@lemmy.zip 1 week agoYeah I mean clickbait titles gonna clickbait. Linux is great and steamos / proton are amazing. It’s incredible how well they do perform, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves lol.

Windows is essentially free too btw. 99% of people don’t need to buy a license, an unactivated copy will do just fine.
Superior? I guess that’s debatable, definitely not an objective fact.
What most people will overlook just to go “yeah suck that windows!” is the GPU market share - Nvidia has 95%! That means that Linux will be significantly worse than Windows for 95% of people.

Is the significance in the room with us? All I’m seeing is marginal difference at this point.

Did you not look at the results when the user has a Nvidia GPU? Or when ray tracing is enabled? if you can even enable it on the Linux version, of course. Or when res goes above 1080p up to 4K?

Pulling numbers out of thin air.
Also, I’m not seeing the “massive” here. But I’m not someone who sweats about framerates as long as they’re stable and above 60fps. I have always been a mid-spec player.
Those Nvidia numbers aren’t great, but in general, fuck Nvidia. They are getting better about their drivers, and the performance on Linux will continue to get better.
But me, I’m happy gaming on Linux, and so are lots of folks.
