Summary: "Most of our recent Windows vs. Linux performance comparisons

have been done using Windows 8 (e.g. AMD Kaveri: Windows 8.1 vs. Ubuntu

Linux, SteamOS vs. Windows 8.1, NVIDIA GTX TITAN: Windows 8.1 vs. Ubuntu

13.10, etc). However, for changing things up a bit and looking also at

the state of mature graphics drivers, being benchmarked today is the

Ubuntu 14.04 Linux performance with the latest open-source Intel HD

Graphics driver code compared to Windows 7 Pro x64 with its latest Intel

graphics driver when using HD Graphics 3000 "Sandy Bridge" hardware."
