They approached this from a noob perspective and the benchmarks seemed pretty rough. The blog has an overall positive tone on linux which is nice even though it got murdered in performance.

I'd like to see a follow up with optimizations, get some of the linux community involved to help setup an optimized linux test bench to go toe to toe with their "golden image" windows 11 benchmark setup.

They benchmarked a few distros against each other and it was very samey which I expected, the real difference is between the drivers/kernel and desktop environment since most distros come very light in terms of installed software.

As an Intel/nVidia user when I switched (ie I already owned them). I can say that in real world gaming - ie not synthetic benchmarking, my vibes based analysis is that some games are definitely less fps, others I can't notice, and a few i'm quite sure performed better.

If I were buying new I would probably go with AMD, but from my experience being team blue & green should be no impediment to moving.
