Windows Vs Linux - Every Blender user needs to see this!

Realtime Rendering, Physics, Simulations, Animation, and more! I benchmarked everything in Blender and compared Windows Vs Linux! This might surprise you...

After watching this, I immediately downloaded Linux and start playing with it. New era starting, thanks.

The first step I do when I install WIndows 10
"Uninstall Candy Crush"

Hardware and software developers REALLY need to start building their products around Linux, it's time to put an end to the Windows/Mac duopoly.

Dang, I always knew rendering on Windows was slower than linux due to driver access issues, but totally did not expect CPU intensive tasks to be hit that badly. Kudos for testing.

You've gotten so good in front of the camera and production man! Always had super helpful videos but I just noticed at some point over the years your production and showmanship has seriously grown natural. Hope you get a regular show / sponsors, you really earned it 👍

Next year that Win7 support ends, I'm moving to Manjaro Linux.

edit: Since a lot of people are still commenting under this one, I should update this by saying that I went from Manjaro to Artix to OpenSUSE to now Garuda.

With Geek mentioning Candy Crush I decided to take a look in the installed programs list. Yes, that malware got reinstalled, I removed it again. I also removed Skype, no use for that. I prefer Linux and it is my main OS but for gaming I still depend on Windows, unfortunately.

[KRAFTWERKK]

the box sad "windows 8.1 or better" so installed Linux.

There's more: Blender 2.8 will not work on Intel's HD3000 on Windows, but will run fine on Linux.

I am thinking of switching to Linux so this is perfect timing

[mojoNoodlz]

Thumbs up for all the work you put into making this video. Thanks. Very interesting results.

[callisoncaffrey]

And Ubuntu isn't even the fastest distribution of Linux.

[World_Theory]

12:02 How is this a doubt? It's a cold, hard, fact. Windows sends information to Microsoft, unless you go out of your way to pull that junk out.

[julianobianchini]

Outstanding work! Congratulations and thank you for sharing it!

[jdevcast]

I’ve been a Windows user for years, and tried Linux on and off. Installed Manjaro and i love it! I noticed the transfer speeds for my SSDs and USB sticks were so much faster.

[SkyFly]

Blender is slow on Windows 10, because Windows 10 is busy with Candy Crash...

😆😆😆😆

[CorvusNumber]

Excellent video! But not a surprise for any Linux users watching.

[PremierPrep]

I left Windows completely back in 2014 and have not missed it at all! I use Ubuntu 18.04 and use DaVinci Resolve Studio, Blender, and Gimp(and other little apps) and have absolutely no need/want anymore for Windows or Adobe applications!!

[opentoreason]

Being a beginner in Blender, I have to admit CG Geek is the best tutorial I have ever seen on any subject, and I have seen hundreds. Everything is coherent, in laymen terms, and easy to understand. On Microsoft Windows, the best tip I ever got was to get rid of it. I did! After a few months on MX Linux I have accomplish more than I ever did in 24 years with MS. No more annoying updates, activation, viruses, buying software, and the Windows help that never solves anything, etc... Thank you CG Geek for using the gift you have to articulate, and teach without the presumptuous nature that most of us, have had to put up with for years.

I just went dual boot to Pop Os (Ubuntu) as a result of watching this video. I have to say, its borderline upsetting how much smoother the Blender experience is on Linux. Just about everything works faster and more reliably, even thing that you might not expect like addons, rigs, undo etc. It ends up being a more creatively impulsive experience overall as a result. Thanks for taking the time to do a deep dive that helps all of us make better decisions!
