It would not matter that much if the Linux figures were anyway above 60 FPS, but it’s not the case: while we lack the information regarding the distribution of its performance, there’s a good likelihood that 30% of the time you will get less than 60 fps on Linux in-game.

Average FPS: 107.99 on Windows vs 73.57 on Ubuntu.Max FPS: 152.18 on Windows vs 114.33 on Ubuntu.This time the gap is not as bad as for the previous case: The CPU is very much in the same class while clocked higher in this case. Nvidia drivers: 352.30 on Linux and 353.62 on WindowsĪs you can see the key difference here vs the previous configuration is the GPU card.the GTX980 – which is tbe best nVidia card available currently (if you exclude the newer Titan). On the same day another Linux user shared a benchmark on newer GPU card. If we could get within 10-20% of the Windows version framerate it would not be such an issue, but half as much makes it very hard to recommend Linux for gaming at all in this particular case. Even though we are lucky to have this port, frankly it’s hard to find such gap acceptable. Amplitude (Max vs Min FPS) : 49.75 on Windows vs 44.03 on UbuntuĪs you can see the game runs about half as fast as the Windows version on average.Lowest FPS: 31.65 on Windows vs 6.84 on Ubuntu.Average FPS: 55.83 on Windows vs 30.16 on Ubuntu.Max FPS: 81.40 on Windows vs 50.87 on Ubuntu.
The result leaves nothing to speculation:
