Xonotic on all of the cards except for the GTX 1060 was faster on Linux.

Including for the Radeon open-source graphics stack, the performance was much better on Linux than Windows. But for the Java Linux 2D performance, the NVIDIA performance was much better than on the AMD Polaris and Vega graphics cards.
