Nobara OS, Arch Linux and Pop!_OS beat Windows 11 by a slim margin in fps (delta 8) in Windows native games - Cyberpunk 2077, Forspoken, Starfield and The Talos Principle II. Windows 11 wins in Rachet & Clank.

ComputerBase's testing was done on an all-AMD test rig, featuring a Ryzen 7 5800X (non-3D) and a Radeon RX 6700 XT.

Update: Windows 11 wins in one game.

Soooo when did Arch become a gaming focused OS?

[–] woelkchen@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Since Valve decided that.

Is arch really gaming focused though?

[–] lea@feddit.de 0 points 11 months ago

Arch is focused on being cutting-edge and lightweight which happens to be perfect for gaming performance in most cases but that's all.
