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.

For me it has been that simple, but to get to that simplicity took a lot of work. I've tried Windows 11 and it just sucked for gaming. Stuttered like mad on Cyberpunk and Bluetooth had major latency problems, and neither occurred on Linux.

Exactly. It doesn't "just work" but if you can get it going it's great.

All that work is what makes it not simple though.

Pretty much. If you want the simplest, "just works" Linux setup, your best bet right now is buying a Steam Deck.
