Summary: "In the past few days I have posted benchmarks showing how

AMD's latest open-source Radeon Linux driver code is faster than their

hybrid/proprietary driver for OpenGL and perhaps most excitingly is

finally how AMD Radeon GPUs are beginning to really compete with NVIDIA

GPUs on Linux and in some cases performing better against the GeForce

competition than they do under Windows. This comes after years of work

on their open-source driver stack and especially a lot of work done over

the past year not only by AMD but also Valve and other open-source

contributors to Mesa, their RadeonSI Gallium3D driver, their AMDGPU LLVM

compiler back-end continues to be refined for compute and graphics, and

the AMDGPU kernel driver. So here are the latest Windows vs. Linux

gaming benchmarks on the Radeon side to see where things stand now with

this latest code."
