Tomb Raider performance improves by 20% on Linux compared to Windows 10
Tomb Raider performance improves by 20% on Linux compared to Windows 10
It hasn't been released yet, so what's the way to compare it? The likely reason is that the Linux version doesn't include the nVidia components. It seems the Linux release is more aligned with the PS4 version.
It might be delayed because the game hasn't been officially released yet or there are licensing issues.
It seems you're asking about graphics technology and APIs. Specifically, you mentioned AMD, nVidia, 3D APIs on Windows, and a game setup. Let me clarify: Are you looking for details on graphics cards, APIs like DirectX or Vulkan, or something else related to performance?
Nixxes managed the port for Linux, which would clarify a significant aspect of its functionality.
Well, I suppose I'll test this on my AMD RX480 since I'm feeling a bit stuck. If I don't get any excitement, I might pick up a Tahiti instead... The build I'm using is Ryzen 7/1700x with MSI B450I Power Color RX480 Red Devil at the default settings—two BIOS options: one optimized for 1330MHz and another with default clock speeds. Here are the results for Windows 10 DX12 Mountain Peak: 105,14 (66.25 - 162.39), Syria: 79,33 (39 - 99.45), Geothermal Valley: 78,59 (min 63.82 - 99.47). Overall score: 88.15. Fullscreen exclusive: 105,19 - 66.28 - 167.16 (79.65 - 44.86 - 93.24), Exclusive DX11: 102,53 (61.86 - 196.24), 73.78 overall. On the second try it was 104,73 - 66.28 - 197.26 with a range of 75.75 - 31.47 - 104.21 and 73.45 - 30.98 - 92.28. Linux would be a good option since I'm downloading several distros at the same time and it would save me some time.
Ugh, why am I constantly reminded why I don't like Linux so much each time I try it? The good side is Enlightenment has a nice look but needs more testing. The bad parts include having to launch Steam with LD_PRELOAD set, disabling GL_DRI3, experiencing screen tearing at startup, and not being able to read exFAT files out of the box. I'm currently using Opensuse Leap 15 (after version 42) and RotR is loading—should be ready in about 30 minutes. My 100MBit/sec line is impressive right now, handling roughly 11MiB per second.
