The YouTube channel "Maximum Fury" conducted a technical test of the new Cyberpunk add-on called "Phantom Liberty" on an older AMD hardware system, testing it separately on Linux and Windows 11. The Linux system, specifically the Fedora distribution called Nobara, performed significantly better, delivering 31% more frames compared to Windows 11.
The hardware used for testing included an Asrock B550 motherboard with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600 CPU and an AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT GPU from the first RDNA generation, along with 16 GB of DDR4 RAM. The CPU, RAM, and GPU were overclocked, and the system utilized undervolting to save energy costs.
When testing the game at 1080p resolution with high textures, the Linux system achieved an average of 63.72 frames per second (fps), while Windows 11 managed only 48.55 fps. This suggests that the game should run noticeably smoother on the Linux system.
Just came back to say it freaken worked. Cyberpunk on linux looks and runs just as well as it does on windows. I don't think I need to dual boot anymore…
export PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=0 export PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 export VKD3D_CONFIG="dxr,dxr11" export PROTON_ENABLE_NGX_UPDATER=1In case anyone else is wondering…
Haha glad it worked out :)
