big bars are from the video. small bars are from https://gamersnexus.net/gpus/amd-needs-just-shut-amd-radeon-rx-9060-xt-16gb-gpu-review in july

I do want linux to gain market share, but this stuff is important. Eagle 5060 can't even run Dragons Dogma 2 really on linux at 1440p max settings, but can handle it on windows at 1440p max settings. Doesn't apply to me... but this is why we need to see the parity.

9070xt seems fairly close, compared to nvidia

FWIW, Gamers Nexus specifically said during the video multiple times not to compare the results between Linux and Windows as they aren't apples to apples in data.

Sure, and you can never have something be apples to apples when the entire architecture simply works differently between the two, unless you have some kind of external hardware monitor.

It doesn't matter though. Imperfect comparisons are ten thousand times better than no comparisons at all, especially when entertainment is on the line!

Only a dead man gets in between me and my entertainment.
