    How do you “optimize” a windows system for gaming?

    Linux is faster because even emulating games on vulkan is faster than running native on directx

      Emulation will never be faster than native.

          That it’s biased and inaccurate.

            Windows is closed source so it has to do extra stuff to hide it’s internal behavior. Linux isn’t. This allows better drivers in Linux. This means in some cases emulating windows games on Linux is literally faster. You don’t have to emulate the entire system, only the parts you need to run the game on your computer.
