Intel Kabylake: Windows 10 vs. Linux OpenGL Performance

Interesting results. Also hope the upcoming Windows vs. Linux tests will allow directly comparing the 4 datapoints AMD/Linux, AMD/Windows, NVidia/Linux and NVidia/Windows. And even better if, as a reference, it'll also compare the pure-CPU performance on the measured platforms (which should be close, but in practice isn't exactly the same due to a variety of influences).

Actually. I remember back in the day when my laptop couldn't run oblivion in wine, and steam on Linux didn't exist. Nowadays, you have support for OpenGL 4.5 on most arches (at 2fps to be sure, but that's not linux fault). My iMac has an okay gpu but OS X only supports OpenGL 4.1. That isn't enough for a lot of modern games at all.

Only until 2017 has Intel actually caught up with the main OpenGL spec for multiple GPUs. They're still cranking away at other extensions, but they're slowly running out of things to get done. At this point, Ivy Bridge [I think] users have more OpenGL compatibility under Linux than they do in Windows. With less GL specs to worry about, the Intel Linux devs will/should soon focus more on performance improvements, something they probably never really prioritized over the years.
