Core i7 8700K vs. Ryzen 7 1800X For NVIDIA/Radeon Linux Gaming

BioShock Infinite on Linux is well known as one of the more CPU bound titles. Here we see quite a difference in performance between the i7 8700K and Ryzen 7 1800X. The Core i7 8700K Coffeelake processor was delivering about 64% better performance in this particular extreme case.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive meanwhile sided with the Core i7 8700K but the margins were less with around 30% better performance at 1080p or much closer performance at 4K.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided at 1400p with high quality settings was about the same performance on the tested cards except for the high-end GTX 1080 Ti.
