Nope this is purely from a broken test. Watch the video and you'll see that its not testing with the same power limits.
17w tests are actually 16w vs 20w+ and 35w test is 25w vs 35w
This leads to drastically higher clock speeds on both cpu and gpu as seen in the video and thus higher fps (and power draw, so lower battery life)
Look at the actual video that Tom's is pulling data from. There is clearly a bug with the tdp limiting in Linux which is using far more power and thus higher clock speeds.
The only valid results are 13w vs 13w. The "17w" is actually 16w windows vs 20w+ Linux and "35w" is actually 25w vs 35w.
Put your bias aside... look at the actual tests and you'll see that they are heavily flawed eith Linux not respecting the tdp amounts and pulling much more power thus running faster.
They are supposed to have the same settings, the Linux ones are just wrong and using more power than told It's supposed to be capped to 17 but pulling over 20 vs 16 on windows. That's a lot more lower resulting in higher fps but lower battery life.
Because its using more power and has a higher tdp?
That's apples and oranges. At the same power limits they have same performance. With higher power limit ofc you'll have higher performance.
It's bad test.
Watch the video the tdp, clock speeds for cpu and gpu are much higher on Linux which accounts for the differences
So battery life would be much better in windows since it's running fast more conservatively

They did the same shit with covid. Trump admin was preventing blue states from prepairing and securing PPE. They wanted it to ravage large cities
Yeah, I'd say it's a red flag except there are a ton of crazies that this quickly filters for them and keeps them safe from.
So in an ideal world it would be bad, but it makes sense in the one we live in.
Yes I watched the whole thing. Did you?
1-2 fps isn't faster when it's not identical scenes.
Windows was faster by 1 fps in hogwarts legacy at 13w ๐. Does that make windows better? No. It's margin of error.
