We're certainly excited for Gen11 graphics and can't wait to see how it will improve the Intel Linux gaming experience as most of the modern Steam Play titles on Linux have a tough time with non-Iris Gen9 graphics.

There are some minor OpenGL and Vulkan performance improvements to find with Mesa 19.1 though you'll want to be running at lower resolutions if wanting these newer Linux games (both native and Steam Play / DXVK titles) to run nicely with current generation hardware.
