I want to buy a gaming laptop from mainstream brands like asus, msi, hp. I wish to install linux for gaming.
On windows we do have softwares like armoury crate, omen centre etc to control performance profiles. On windows it is impossible to get peak performance without installing those softwares and bios options are usually limited
How are these things handled in linux? Without dedicated software, can the OS( not bios) achieve peak performance with powershell/terminal?
More battery life means the cpu is power limited compared to windows + armoury crate performance mode?
Or that the CPU is not doing needles add servings.
It probably means that there are fewer useless background processes eating up your battery
If you're asking about gaming performance on Linux, then the answer is that it depends on the game. Some run better on Linux (Cyberpunk made headlines recently) and some run worse.
Edit: ah, you're asking any Armory Crate because they have the performance modes. That's just overclocking. You can do that on Linux, but it won't be as easy as using Armory Crate.
No, I have also found that my processes run faster on Linux than on Windows. I don't know what is armoury crate but from the way you're talking about it it manages CPU modes.
Whatever you do in Windows, you can in Linux (almost). But it is sometimes harder, sometimes simpler.
