Damn that's a huge performance increase wtf. That's a gpu upgrade worth of performance for free.

Yeah, it almost looks like you'd be able to run things faster than natively on windows, which is why I'm suspicious (not that it's a lie just that the numbers lack context). It doesn't say what the numbers represent I think?

The numbers represent FPS. Now, Wine is not an emulator and the Linux architecture and it's system calls are written in C, so it's not uncommon to find games running better on Linux nowadays. Pretty sure all games can be optimized to be run better than on windows.

Proton+DXVK is pretty darn efficient. On average it is slightly slower than Windows, but not by much and it can also be faster in certain games.

That's Linux free real state for you sugar pie
