Gaming in particular seems to be the same, with few games having noticeable differences either way.
Productivity wise, it's night and day. On Linux I can run simulations while doing other stuff, on windows I had to have a freshly rebooted session with nothing else opened and leave it alone for hours to, maybe, run without crashing.
