   Well, that's not ideal...

     @nfilipes it looks like Geekbench is reporting base frequency on Windows and max frequency on Linux/Arch?

     Both are boosting as expected up to 5ghz. Both are on identical performance profiles….

     @killyourfm what is it with the different frequencies on the chip?

     @Azarilh not sure yet, haven’t done the testing.

     @killyourfm That's pretty bad. Is it the same on other Linux distros?

     @nfilipes hmm, I don’t know but it’s a good hunch. This makes me wonder how Bazzite would perform since I believe that Diageo has optimizations for Asus laptops.

     @killyourfm could Asus have optimized it for windows though the motherboard?

     PHEW, solved it!
     Apparently Geekbench has a separate AVX2 executable on Linux, which performs much closer to expectations. #Linux ftw, as it should be...

     @killyourfm why is the frequency lower on the windows install?

     @ReverseModule Sort of! I'm building up an internal library of benchmarks again to have some reference points. This is my personal laptop, but Asus is sending the brand new Zephyrus G16 with Strix Point for review which is what prompted me to start testing my older laptop.
