@itsfoss Dani's Race. My brother got 50 FPS max on Windows and 100+ FPS ( sometimes even as high as 179 FPS ) on Ubuntu. Also the game is a pain in the neck to play on Windows.

Oh and also Yuzu (aka Citron) for SSBU.

@itsfoss
I would assume anything that doesn't need a graphics card and abything that uses opensource scripting languages might run better.

@itsfoss most games run better (with proton) on linux, they run a lot more stable, no stuttering issues. My lowest lows are higher on linux than on windows, just tested it with oblivion remastered

@itsfoss Factorio may run better depending on the cpu

@itsfoss Snowrunner, always ran better in Linux, used to have a lot of micro stutters in Windows and crashes, on Linux it was smooth as silk and 100% stable.

@Carbs That's a good game. 😃

@itsfoss Civilization 7. Way better on Ubuntu than on Windows on the same machine.

@itsfoss we have to build games first...

@itsfoss Guild Wars 2 stutters like crazy on Windows, and tends to have lower fps in intense areas. Meanwhile, on Linux, it does not stutter at all and fps is better in intense areas.

It could probably run better on Windows if I could get the damn dxvk working...

@itsfoss I was surprised but all the total war Warhammer 1, 2 and 3 run far better on Linux proton than Windows with a full amd proc and gpu configuration

@itsfoss not better, but surprising it did work on Linux (it has a problem showing video cut scenes)

@itsfoss quand j'avais encore la possibilité de comparer (je n'ai plus de Windows), on constate que l'ensemble des jeux démarre plus vite malgré l'usage de proton. Le système de fichier linux est plus performant, pas vrai ?
