Penguin Recordings's video: Wine VS Windows : Assassins Creed 2 Benchmark with a GTX 680

@Wine VS Windows : Assassins Creed 2 Benchmark with a GTX 680
This video's focus for the benchmark is on the performance of Wine coupled with Nvidia's driver against running Assassin's Creed II natively on Windows. Timeline: 1. Intro 0:00 2. Settings 1:00 3. Side-by-side comparison (Max settings) 1:11 4. Summary 3:20 The following Nvidia drivers were used: Windows 10 Pro with 355.98 drivers Ubuntu 15.04 with 358.16 drivers There are no graphs this time around, as I was not able to record framerates over a duration. GLXOSD seems to refuse to collect framerates when it comes to WINE, and Fraps seems to crash ACII. To keep things fair, settings remained the same on both platforms. V-Sync and Multisampling was disabled on both. Wine 1.8 RC2 Staging was used, and was a clean prefix. CSMT was enabled. Nothing was installed via winetricks or POL. This should be reproducible with little effort. GLXOSD was used for the frame counter on Wine, and MSI Afterburner was used for the frame counter on Windows. I recorded my screen using my Canon SX50HS Powershot camera, so that performance would not be affected. All hardware on this computer is the same. The game is being run from a 1TB Western Digital Green Caviar HDD on both systems, so no hardware discrepancy should exist. On Ubuntu, the CPU governor is set to Performance. For Windows, Power Settings is set to High Performance. Maximum settings means cranking everything ON and to the Highest setting possible. My verdict: WINE handles this game practically as if it were a native title. That is to say, you'll experience very little differences between running ACII in WINE compared to running it in Windows. The only real issues have to do with Uplay and controller support I may have made mistakes, and if I have done so, please forgive me and correct me in the comments. I've tried to do this benchmark and review to the best of my knowledge and capabilities.
