Nvidia user, i saw a 10-15% performance difference (maybe more in some games), some anti-cheat do not work, so i can not install these games. I used both Mint and Nobara with latest drivers running and proton-GE.
Might be game dependent but nowadays games like withcher 3 run better on linux then windows for me.
Anti-cheat is admittedly a pain though. Chivalry 2 used to work and now no longer does.
Though those anti cheats tend to be very invasive so i prefer if everyone moved to a system thats is user personal security first so the market would align with that.
If you ever wanna try again you should stick to a gaming distribution like nobara. A lot of performance can also get lost just because esync / fsync aren’t configured correctly in the distribution. This should be fixed in the near future too , once https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/7226 is merged and people use modern kernels aka > 6.14.

May i ask why gaming on linux isn’t for you ?
I assume he is playing an FPS game with anti-cheat, everything else just works.
Or League of legends. Cant play on Linux with riot anticheat

Thanks alot for the information. I understand the pain points and cross my fingers that nvidia finds fast the issues of their drivers being slower in vkd3d https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/directx12-performance-is-terrible-on-linux/303207/58
