"TBH honest if people would have just used linux"... bla bla etc... Are you serious...?


Yes he is.  I have been running steam on linux since beta and steam games run better on the same hardware.  Look at the valve internal reports:

Plus less overhead, you can run it in steam only without a desktop environment and boost that further.  Windows is a heavy burden on PC hardware and DXx of any flavour is an unnecessary filter between software and the hardware.
