To be fair, Linux would perform so poorly too, if it had 194 data extraction programs running in the background. This comparison is clearly unfair.

Are you able to remove the 194 data extraction programs that are running in the background as user?

Pretty much everything that isn’t artificially crippled to not run on Linux runs better on Linux

Microsoft after spending $1 trillion to make everything as incompatible with Unix as possible: “Look, look! Our OS is performing 0.7%* better. This is why open source software is pointless.”

*Only in this specific, 1 in 1000000 scenario. Please refer to: aka.ms/fuckyourself for more information.

I don’t know what’s worse: the fact that nobody at Microsoft registered that short URL for the lulz or the resulting destination for short URLs that don’t get found.

Probably because it doesn’t have to run all the bloatware and spyware.

I’d be really interested to see how it runs the IoT edition instead of mainline Windows

Out of the box the ROG Ally runs Xbox FSE which is a stripped down Windows optimized for gaming, so the comparison isn’t with the mainline. I didn’t find a comparison with Xbox FSE and Windows IoT though.

I’m inclined to believe IoT would still have a partial advantage because of it being devoid of any unnecessary components - FSE still includes their “Gaming AI” and the Microsoft Store because it’s for home users rather than enterprise customers.

This is already supposed to be a stripped down Windows version for handhelds

That’s XBOX ALLY X, the more powerful version.

Also, I need to look way more into this as 32% sounds cherry picked as fuck.

Edit: yeah, this didn’t take much to find out. It’s due to a bug not apples to apples comparison. Still calls it Ally and not Ally X and SO MANY FUCKERS HERE FELL FOR THIS, JESUS F CHRIST.

You should be embarrassed, all of you. Hundreds of upvotes “oh yeah, figures!” with ZERO and I mean ZERO critical thinking. You read what you want to read and take it as facts.

So sure, if you run one device at 21 TDP and the other at 17, one will do better!

Did you read a different article than this one or something? What you’re saying makes no sense.

Did we read the same article?

So sure, if you run one device at 21 TDP and the other at 17, one will do better!

From the article:

Unless you’re really splitting hairs, 31.91% = 32%. Using the same TDP on both.

It’s due to a bug not apples to apples comparison.

There’s only two mentions of bugs, and both are used to describe Bazzite’s rapid development, nothing to do with performance.

So, what are you talking about?

Look at the actual video that Tom’s is pulling data from. There is clearly a bug with the tdp limiting in Linux which is using far more power and thus higher clock speeds.

The only valid results are 13w vs 13w. The “17w” is actually 16w windows vs 20w+ Linux and “35w” is actually 25w vs 35w.
