Nobara OS, Arch Linux and Pop!_OS beat Windows 11 by a slim margin in fps (delta 8) in Windows native games - Cyberpunk 2077, Forspoken, Starfield and The Talos Principle II. Windows 11 wins in Rachet & Clank.

ComputerBase's testing was done on an all-AMD test rig, featuring a Ryzen 7 5800X (non-3D) and a Radeon RX 6700 XT.

Update: Windows 11 wins in one game.

Doesn't matter. Easy of use + compatibility trumps all.

More like, "doesn't matter -- not being tracked > all." :^)

Even so, Linux is easier to use than Windows (yes, I went there.) because of a single and only fact:

Configuration files.

Does the average Windows user can configure EVERYTHING through a SINGLE configuration/text file, that explicitly says "what does what"? Video, sound, window size, hotkeys....?

No? So there you have it.

Windows has a configuration file, it's called a registry. Always has been.
