What GPU is the BEST for Linux Gaming? | Linus Tech Tips

Hey Ian Bunting this is something I forgot to bring up though from everything going on with Linux. On my 5070 I saw a BIG reduction in performance compared to on Windows... My 3080ti was around 10% max in FPS reduction. For some reason the 50 series is HORRIBLE to around 25% reduction in FPS... Doesn't make much sense of than them being lazy in coding the drivers properly for Linux is all I can think of... Seeing… See More

this video showed it isn't just my own experience... But apparently the Linus team saw this, and so did Jayztwocents he commented on it once. Nice to see the AMD cards neck and neck though, with some pulling ahead on Linux at times.

Basically, it takes time for freeware developers to figure out new GPUs, because companies aren't so quick to hand out information or to make new drivers in the form of source code. Shortcomings of Linux gaming is a product of corporate secrets and greed.

Useful to know thank you.
On Nvidia atm, and not feasible any time soon to change as any decent upgrade would be expensive, and perhaps rather bottlenecked on my current CPU anyway.

Are you getting that performance reduction with native Linux ports or through a compatibility layer?

Yeah, remove this patch ASAP if you are having issues with the most recent Microsoft update... My computer updated last Friday with this garbage... I ended up having hitches with my mouse, and even NVIDIA driver crashes WHILE working with a client... Thank you Microsoft for this garbage...

My machine won't run Windows 11 and I'm glad it won't

Not on Windows 11 yet due to stuff like this (and other reasons), though I don't think waiting is going to change much.

Okay, I didn't realize the Steam Replay had a breakdown on what you have been playing mostly on in terms of OS and VR. So for the past few months since I have swapped things over, I have 25% of the games I play on Linux. I can officially say though now almost 100% of the games I am in now are on Linux only. Other than if I were to pop over to Windows for some Fortnite like I did a week ago   So odds are right now next year almost 100% will be on Linux lmao.

I am happy with the results I have had… See More

so far. NOT to say there haven't been some issues to pop up. But overall this has been a smooth ride so to speak. Maybe I should do a breakdown video on my journey so far?

The impression I get, is that Linux is vastly overhyped as a replacement for Windows in terms of supporting a straightforward transition of the OS only.
There are a whole lot of things that require extra work, sometimes a lot of it, and there is due to the fragmented nature of kernels, desktop environments, and other things a number of varying solutions often needing tailored to those.
And that has been a barrier for experienced users, let alone those not, which seems to be an audience it could, and… See More

should be doing a lot more for.

What do you think should be changed.
