NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 / RTX 5090 Linux Gaming Benchmarks
With the Linux native build of 3DMark Wild Life on Linux, the RTX 5090 had around 20% uplift over prior generation while the RTX 5080 advantage was around 9%.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics continue to maintain the strong advantage over AMD Radeon graphics on Linux when it comes to Vulkan ray-tracing performance. With the RTX 50 series, NVIDIA continues to extend its ray-tracing advantage over Radeon graphics on Linux in native tests like GPUScore: Breaking Limit.
Even running Breaking Limit with ray-tracing disabled still showed strong leads for NVIDIA over the Radeon RX 7000 series graphics.
For those curious about OpenGL performance with the GeForce RTX 50 Blackwell GPUs, stressing the GPUs with Unigine Superposition continued to show strong performance with a very nice upgrade from the RTX 4090 to RTX 5090 while the RTX 5080 nearly matched the RTX 4090.
