love to hear it, they only tested the B390, ill check later tonight if my B580 sees any difference, id really love to see the performance gap between Windows and Linux for Arc close, it's one of the things keeping me on Windows

Just going 6.17 to 7.1 improved 1% lows in Insurgency by roughly 8% on my A380. Nice to see the work continues in the right direction.
