Intel Core Ultra 9 285K "Arrow Lake" Windows 11 vs. Ubuntu Linux Performance

One of the areas for benchmarking exploration that I had been meaning to dive into since the launch of the Intel Arrow Lake processors back in October was checking out the Microsoft Windows 11 vs.

With recently carrying out a Windows 11 install on Arrow Lake for running the Intel Arc B580 Battlemage Windows vs. Linux benchmarks, following that I carried out some fresh CPU benchmarks for seeing how Arrow Lake processor performance is looking on these competing operating systems. For all of this testing the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K at stock speeds was used with the 2 x 16GB DDR5-6400 memory, ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z890 HERO motherboard with the latest BIOS, and WD_BLACK SN850X 1TB NVMe SSD storage. - Ubuntu 24.10 when using the Linux 6.13 development kernel and switching over to the Intel P-State "performance" governor rather than the default intel_pstate powersave mode.
