Youtuber Maximum Fury has published a video showing that Cyberpunk 2077 patch 2.0 runs 31.2 percent faster on Linux than on Windows 11. Both tests used the same PC build, with an AMD processor and AMD GPU.
The processor was an AMD Ryzen 5 5600, while the video card would have been an AMD Radeon 5700 XT. Maximum Fury also used 16GB of DDR4 memory. The YouTuber overclocked the CPU and GPU in both cases and used an ASRock B550M Pro4 motherboard.
Cyberpunk 2077, with patch 2.0 installed, achieved an average frame rate of 48.55 fps on Windows 11 version 22H2. This is evident from the benchmark results of the game itself. On Linux distro Nobara, the game achieved an average frame rate of 63.72 fps. These results were achieved by setting the game resolution to 1920×1080 in both cases, the texture quality op high and not use HDR. Ray tracing, VSync or AMD FSR were also not used.
It’s unclear whether any other changes or patches contributed to Cyberpunk 2077’s improved performance on the Linux distro. The Youtuber says in one of the comments below Of video However, the SMT patch introduced in the game’s patch 2.0 has widened a previous performance gap between Windows and Linux.
