Cool that average FPS is better but:

The impressive FPS deltas aside, it should be mentioned that, with the exception of Arch Linux, average frame times (measured as 1% lows, in this case) on Linux were generally behind what Windows managed by up to 20%

I feel like worse 1% lows makes this title misleading. Hopefully with time this gap will close.

Testing done on specific hardware and not a broad spectrum of machines is as relevant as asking one person their political opinion and saying that applies to their whole nation.

Well sure but rephrased it’s just “Three Linux distros that embarrass Windows 11 in gaming performance.” which to me, is equally interesting.

“on that one specific machine.”

You’re missing that part from your premise and it’s the important one.

Notice how they didn’t use one with an Nvidia GPU… Or even hardware released this year either…

Edit: Aaaw, I made you angwy and you downvoted me :(

What do the performance metrics look like for the games that won’t run on Linux?

About the same as Spiderman 2 or Ghost of Tsushima on Windows.
