A good number of games run better on Linux, I bet it will find it obvious on lower specced machines too. I just saw this video today and on Linux, it shows a 10 fps boost for most of the games demonstrated.

Yeah so pretty hard to generalize based on testing one setup. Ask most people with an Nvidia GPU how they like Linux gaming...

I think as long as it isn't the newest nvidia gpu, I've heard they're generally alright if you use the proprietary and non-free drivers.
