Yeah it's just quite a bit worse than Windows for DX 12 games especially leveraging Ray Tracing, while AMD can be faster. If you play mostly DX 9-11 games Linux is actually faster on any make GPU and it even is on Windows with DXVK. The reason AMD is much better is it is more open, Steamdeck leverages AMD and the community can contribute a lot more than Nvidia which is much more closed. Nvidia just hasn't felt the need to truly go all in on supporting it yet. Adoption rates get better all the time though so I expect that might change soon.

Even on my Win gaming machine I am constantly using DXVK's DX 9 and 11 dll's and dropping it in non DX 12 games. It just runs them better. Off the top of my head Star Wars Fallen Order stuttered way less on my 4090 with it. DX 9-11 CPU threading and memory management is just such garbage that Vulkan layers are superior.

All true. Closed source NVIDIA drivers tend to be more stable for me, so here's hoping that the open ones catch up.
