# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `Red Dead Redemption_CachyOS` with around 1% higher average FPS compared to other runs, demonstrating superior performance. * **Smoothest FPS**: `Red Dead Redemption_Windows10` with roughly 9% lower standard deviation and variance compared to the Linux runs, indicating more consistent frame rates. * **Best overall**: `Red Dead Redemption_CachyOS` as it offers the highest average FPS with relatively similar stability to the other Linux run, balancing performance and smoothness efficiently. # Issues: * The run using Windows demonstrated around 3% lower average FPS than the Linux benchmarks, which indicates suboptimal frame performance. * There is a noted difference in CPU load variance on Windows, which is considerably higher (approximately 11 times) compared to Linux, which might be affecting FPS stability. # Summary This benchmark compared the performance of "Red Dead Redemption" on different operating systems, specifically between Linux distributions, namely `Nobara` and `CachyOS`, and `Windows 10`, using the same `AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT` GPU and `AMD Ryzen 7 3700X` CPU. The Linux distributions showed improved FPS performance over Windows, with `CachyOS` leading in terms of both average FPS and overall balance, likely due to its kernel optimizations. However, Windows presented smoother FPS results, indicated by a lower standard deviation, but with a notably higher CPU load variance. This suggests that while Linux currently offers better pure performance, Windows continues to provide a slightly more stable experience for "Red Dead Redemption" under these conditions.
