The reason why Minecraft runs a lot better in linux is because it's using OpenGL, while most of games is running using DirectX, OpenGL can run natively in Linux, while DirectX games needs to be emulated Edit: yes, it is translated, not emulated.
Then why is there not much of difference with Vulkan CS2 on Windows and Linux? Why does Doom Eternal run worse on Linux using Vulkan with no translation. I think there is something else causing the difference honestly, I don't think it's just a matter of graphics API especially when Minecraft is especially CPU bound
@@nonetrix3066well Vulkan is native to Linux so most of the time you get better performance, not sure why doom eternal decides to be lower, sometimes that just kinda happens.
the fact that they are so close is actually impressive, especially for the wine ones, while minecraft is already runing in a java vm in both systems, but in linux I think it uses openjdk, that has better performance and integration in the kernel. On older pcs a good reason to switch to linux is that the gpu stops receiving official updates on win, but it gets community updates on linux, that's how I can still use mine, otherwise I'd be stuck to a driver 4 years old. On some systems it also gets more features than the official one, like the gpu in apple silicon, that is far more performant in linux
Good content bro, did you use gamescope or gamemode? Proton version? I read that The tkg kernel improves performance a lot but it takes too long to compile. I haven't tried it. I had very good performance experiences with Bazzite. Keep it up👍
Thanks! Yes, I used gamemode and the proton version was the experimental one. I tested the gamescope on Arch and the performance was the same, so I left it disabled.
I've been playing on linux for some time but then I decided to go back on windows. If you play online games you'll find for sure a game that doesn't work. Performance can be good (as the video shows) but people shouldn't focus on avg fps, 1% lows and even 0.1% lows are also important, in fact on linux I had pretty much the same performance I had on windows but the frametime was just a mess and even 120fps felt laggy (less smooth than windows) on my 165hz monitor sometimes.
Maybe because you dont use gpl in RADV driver , or have nvidia. I have nvidia 1660s and looking some stutters , cause nvidia driver sucks. Maybe on amd with RADV 0.1% and 1%. much better then nvidia , i dont know...

This meets my expectations. Most games run with a few more FPS in Win7 than PopOS for me. So if I have really poor fps in PopOS, running the game in Win7 might get me that extra few valuable FPS to get it playable. This is if Win7 can even run the game, which is getting less viable over time as steadily more games require a newer Windows OS. But that never holds linux back as it can run any game targetting any Windows version (unless it is straight up garbage performance from ProtonDB and/or runs incompatible Kernal anti cheat).
Good content , Myabe you could make a video comparing gaming performance of lightweight custom windows iso like xos with linux It would be owsm video to see
Thanks for the recommendation. I've already considered that. The problem is that many people don't trust these modified Windows ISOs. Perhaps using optimization scripts on a clean Windows installation would be a better option.
Other testing I've seen suggests i3 is (counter-intuitively) _less_ performant than alternatives. In particular, recent gnome desktops on xorg seem to perform best. Wayland still trails xorg, but in theory should overtake it in time. The yet to be mainlined NTSYNC kernel patch should be a game changer (pun intended). Once it's merged, any testing done previously will be outdated. So take all results until then with a grain of salt.

Yeah, but Windows can also be optimized, so unless you're giving both roughly equal time that's unfair to do. Linux takes more time to set up to begin with, even if it's comparable nowadays. And no, SteamOS is also not flawless in that regard. I take the occasional broken registry over kaput Wine on there.
@@gregsar1321 Optimization varies on hardware. Distro maintainers can't compile and ship a dedicated kernel version with settings tailored to your CPU and so on, disabling the stuff you don't need. They can only apply generic optimization that'll work for most
@@whohan779 First of all, no Windows can't really be optimized as it's locked source.
