Intel Core i9 9900K vs. AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Linux Gaming Benchmarks

Thrones of Britannia is one of the newer Linux game ports by Feral Interactive and here the performance ended up being similar between the two tested processors when at 1440p with low quality settings.

The average frame-rate for this Vulkan-rendered game on Linux was similar with ultra quality settings, but interesting to note for both the low and ultra quality runs is the lower peak frame time with the Intel CPU. The Ryzen 7 2700X had a peak frame time of around 442 ms while the Intel Core i9 9900K had a lower peak frame time at around 264 ms.

Dawn of War III on Ubuntu Linux with low quality settings saw the Intel CPU being faster by about 30% over the AMD competition.

But with maximum quality settings in Dawn of War III, the Intel lead shrunk to 15%.
