I bet they used a base Windows system without optimizing it. I respect Linux but when it comes to gaming it will never overtake Windows.
I just installed the systems and followed the normal procedure of what any normal user would do. If you can't deal with the facts that's your problem.
Did you do the same with the Linux machine?
Because I doubt many normal users will be able to prepare a Linux machine to play games unless it is something like a Steam deck.
Your doubts re completely unfounded. Linux was set up in 5 mins, I just installed OpenSUSE, installed Steam and ran the games, since the AMD/Intel drivers are included in the kernel.
On Windows I had to set up for like 45 mins until the installation and all the updates and drivers were done.
I know this is fabricated because if I optimize any Windows system for gaming it will score 2x performance than an optimized Linux system.
And what would you do to optimize your Windows and Linux systems ?
Windows 10 Debloater, Chris Titus Tool.
OpenBox Debian system with proper graphics drivers.
Any scheduler optimisation ? Cryotool ? Feral Gamemode ? Linux has its own bunch of optimisation tools.
But I'd still doubt a 100% difference, unless you played a game with known problems under Proton. For my own experience after almost a year playing on Linux I gained between 5% and 20%, depending on the game.
That's the other issue. "Depending on the game" 60% of all titles doesnt work on Linux and the rest 40% works badly. There is about a handful of games that could perform better than windows but with windows everything works. I am not trying to defend windows, fuck Microsoft. I just want you guys to stop with this delusion that linux is superior. In most ways it is but in the way thag counts the most, windows is still superior.
How do you "optimize" a windows system for gaming?
Linux is faster because even emulating games on vulkan is faster than running native on directx
Emulation will never be faster than native.
Then what's your counter point for the title of this article
That it's biased and inaccurate.

Windows is closed source so it has to do extra stuff to hide it's internal behavior. Linux isn't. This allows better drivers in Linux. This means in some cases emulating windows games on Linux is literally faster. You don't have to emulate the entire system, only the parts you need to run the game on your computer.
