RadeonSI vs. AMDGPU-PRO vs. NVIDIA On Linux For Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

Switching over to high quality visuals, some more results but still not too good for RadeonSI.

The delta between RadeonSI and AMDGPU-PRO decreased, but still not too compelling. Still showing driver issues are the RX 480 and R9 Fury performance being about the same and the R9 Fury coming up short of even a GTX 970.

Those are the latest numbers I have for this game that was released for Linux earlier this month. Still more RadeonSI/AMDGPU LLVM optimizations are needed for making Deus Ex: Mankind Divided more playable on Linux, not to mention AMDGPU-PRO improvements to AMD's closed-source OpenGL driver code.
