AMD on Linux is anywhere from 20 - 150% slower than on Windows on either driver depending on workload. Regardless of your title choice, Nvidia will at least have parity with AMD's performance and will usually crush it. It is hard to persuade gamers to adopt a video card with significantly lower performance / $ when they don't care about software ethics.
And its inappropriate to say AMD have "better" open source drivers - Nvidia has nothing to do with Nouveau besides three commits to make their mobile APUs boot right on it so people can immediately install their blob driver, and its a disservice to the community and all the developers that have put huge effort reverse engineering one of the worst technical black boxes in history to give Nvidia any credit for their work. If its any companies driver, its Red Hats, but a super majority of contributions to it are from unpaid or freelance developers.
