The differences were all within 1% on a single core and less than 2% on multiple cores. Not a difference you would notice without a side by side bench test. So just use the OS that you enjoy using.
Thank you very much for providing these tests. Considering all the subtle performance differences between the 4 systems you have tested, I think that this simply proves how consistent KDE can be across various platforms. Personally I've been using Kubuntu 18.04 on my desktop for more than one year and I've had no complaints so far. I've kept my eyes on OpenSuse for some time though and it looks like it could be a good system to try in the future.
Exactly. Some of these distros do come out ahead, but barley. KDE preforms great no matter where it calls home. Giving full credit to Kubuntu, it was the only distribution that I didn't have some issue getting all of these bench marking tools to run.
This is easily one of the more comprehensive comparison videos I've ever seen and I know it took some time, so thank you. I'm running Kubuntu 20.04.2 and find it to suit my preferences the best but that's the neat thing about Linux distros, there's one for everyone.
Best benchmark video ever. I keep going for OpenSuse, a much more structured distro around in my opinion. A great base and infrastructure backing all the OS.

It's actually interesting that some differences are so big. Makes me kinda understand (especially game) developers who are annoyed by hardware diversity and use that as a reason against also supporting Linux (and turning these differences up to eleven)...
of the 15 main-stream distros I used, OpenSuse was the best. It feels wrong to even compare others with Opensuse, it was a level above with very few bugs.
Love the series keep up the great work. Personally I would love to see performance differences in between Linux distros against windows in professional apps like Davinci resolve, blender etc. which can be great to show the power of the Linux 🐧
Thank you for your hard work, it makes me more admiring openSUSE as the best KDE distro. I have used it for daily driver some times ago, but now I use Fedora KDE instead.
Thank you for the comparison. I bet it took awhile! I'm in the process of searching for a great KDE distro. Been using Solus KDE which is very well polished, attention to detail, etc. but has it's own packaging system (eopkg). If it wasn't for that I'd say it's possibly the best KDE distro. It supports whatever apps my workflow requires now but I might need to tryout plenty of new apps and support fails short here. I'm left with the impression that rpm's are the second most supported packages and I've been thinking about OpenSUSE. Your video helped me consider it even more.
Great work! I have played around with all these systems and always come back to Manjaro KDE. On me laptop anyways. I prefer Arch on my desktop however. Thanks!
KDE Neon is designed and optimized around Plasma so i kinda expect it to perform well. Using Fedora w/Plasma might have been a good fourth. Good video tho.

Watching this meanwhile installing OpenSuse (switching from Manjaro which always was my main distro). I've only wanted to try Suse for the first time, but from what you say, I will love this distro. :)
A very interesting test one would think that all 4 would have the same results on the same computer. Thanks for the extreme effort that you put into this project I for one would have never done it. Your a nice guy and I like your projects most makes a lot of sense and informative.
Tbh, it depnds on your hardware. For a desktop there are most likely no issues but for special laptop drivers it can be difficult for sure. For example my dell xps has closed source fingerprint reader drivers that they only package into deb files and so far only AUR has adapted them too. Software wise opensuse has OBS or you could install rpms. If you have to compile from source and there's a spec file you can create rpm packages with rpm buildtoos. In worst case there's also a script called alien to convert deb files to rpm. Another great thing about Opensuse is it's ease of installing and using Btrfs correctly. Btrfs and snapper saved my ass so many times already that it's hard to give that up.
Love your videos man. I know its 3 years old but it still helped me decide which to use. I am using neon as of yesterday. Thanks for your videos and knowledge!
And opensuse has some problems with some systems. The devs have made kernel a bit flexible for opensuse. They recommend to install the lts(leap) or newer version of mainline kernel.
Good video and thanks for the good content . I have one suggestion :sort the benchmarks to make it more easy to understand the positions . By the side of the score, give a small icon to easily recognize the distro that came up in that place .
Can you do various Desktop environments in Manjaro. Cinnamon vs Gnome vs KDE vs Xfce vs MATE vs Awesome vs I3 vs LXDE and see which DE is faster based on the same distro?
@@lalo180993 I didn't know that. I have never used those two before, however I saw editions for them in the community section and have read people mentioning them before so listed them.
I used to love OpenSUSE and that was what my laptop ran for the last 10 years (I did try other distros just to test them out). Recently my OpenSUSE Leap was just buggy. Few applications wouldnt work. Wasn't satisfied. Switched to Manjaro and am very happy. However last night there was an update for Amarok and it took over 15 mins to update it (build and update). That's not good.
I can say OpenSUSE leap currently has the most functional graphical installer by a wide margin. Just (End of 2022) installed a whole list of distros to partitions on an existing system and use of a nas, so actually testing the installers' flexibility a bit and not just letting them do the most basic thing. Still as disappointed with Fedora/redhat's anaconda installer as I was 5 years ago and almost as format happy as Pop. Pop is dangerous if trying to preserve existing stuff, just really wants to needlessly reformat storage, and even swap, partitions. (which I share between test distros) Manjaro and Debian were both decent, not fine grained, but they respected my choices as the system admin and had a straight forward interface.
I never really even knew about OpenSuse until recently and this distro is crazy fast, I installed it on my old laptop with old HDD!!!! it runs faster then my newer laptop that is running PoP_Os on SSD -_- it does not make any sense to me honestly
OpenSUSE was really good, I like it. However support is of course not as good as the Ubuntu family or Arch family. As for me, I'm content with KDE Neon and am not looking to replace my system for at least a couple of years.
Good Job! If you like, you maybe add Artix-runit-plasma and/or voidlinux, I think they are all good plasma desktop base, of course, support btrfs like opensuse.
Been a while that I watched a "smaller" channel at such professional grade. I think a like and subscribe was mandatory. Been using kubuntu 20.04 on my laptop (i5-8250U, 16gig ddr4, rx520, 256ssd & 1tb HDD) and it doesn't perform great. Since I really want to keep using KDE Plasma, your Video gave me another motivation to check out openSUSE. Even though Fedora has some sort of spins with additional desktops (and therefore no real official support), I'd love to had Fedora KDE in the competition too :/

Everything from building and running bootable live usb sticks or virtual machines with custom installs of Parrot OS and Kali tweaked to my hacking needs with all the databases saved offline always in 2tb external ssd's until another job is requiring them to graphic (not 3d design, thank God talk about a resource hog) design/video editing to downloading torrents like crazy, it's a workhorse and I love the way I can run multiple systems which in turn will isolate different jobs that I need to keep isolated (bootable live flashies with a light linux distro always ready to go can be a lifesaver) I've always had at least the cs6 suite ready to go for over 15yrs but forced myself to switch out of windows and into Linux last week and while Ubuntu was the first install it won't be staying. And I am okay with learning new programs to build whatever I need. Looking forward to seeing what's available. I'm no IT Tech just a UPS driver. I tend to learn my way (or stumble, trip, maybe break an ankle 😆) all the way through but because of that I've always been that person the entire family depends on and can never say no to making sure everyone around me doesn't have issues, back in 04 was jailbreaking iPhones for a soda 😂 (in 2004 or 2005 it wasn't easy to brick them but not too hard, made most gun shy and I was one of 2. Probably closer to 10 realistically in my school that never bricked one at that moment in time ) I installed Kali onto a virtualbox drive 2 days ago and it runs flawlessly in the VM until I went to update && upgrade. Black screen, first time I just deleted and reinstalled everything from the ground up.. happened again but with it cloned a few times it's on the back-burner now (figured I'd try to get comfortable with it in a VM before making the bootable Kingston flashie ready to go) Makes for a decent way to test out these different Distributions but Ubuntu had it's purpose and will continue having a purpose for some folks I'm sure.. I wish Ubuntu would have shown what is possible with it as Kali does, it shouldn't be focused on hacking. Kali and Parrot is for that and those should not be a daily driver unless you really know how to secure them. But it's really cool the way Kali points you the right direction on getting involved in the community and showing you the way so to speak...Ubuntu did none of that in my opinion 🤷 @TechHut - Thanks again for the hard work 🤘🏼😎 ~ Brendan
@@bala5984 when you download opensuse there is 4gb iso file or you can download live version under 1gb and let other files be downloaded over net. Probably thats the reason why it took longer to install. Other linx distributions are around 2gb.

To be fair... do a video with no systemd distros. They are better and faster than distros with systemd. But i would like to see it in depth! I use void and artix. You could also do the same with different init systems: runit, openrc, systemd, sysvinit which are the most common nowdays.
manjaro is stable af, if you know what you are doing. i have been using it for a while now, never failed me and has always worked great on my old system.

I tend to learn my way (or stumble, trip, maybe break an ankle 😆) all the way through but because of that I've always been that person the entire family depends on and can never say no to making sure everyone around me doesn't have issues, back in 04 was jailbreaking iPhones for a soda 😂 (in 2004 or 2005 it wasn't easy to brick them but not too hard, made most gun shy and I was one of 2. Probably closer to 10 realistically in my school that never bricked one at that moment in time )
I installed Kali onto a virtualbox drive 2 days ago and it runs flawlessly in the VM until I went to update && upgrade. Black screen, first time I just deleted and reinstalled everything from the ground up.. happened again but with it cloned a few times it's on the back-burner now (figured I'd try to get comfortable with it in a VM before making the bootable Kingston flashie ready to go) Makes for a decent way to test out these different Distributions but Ubuntu had it's purpose and will continue having a purpose for some folks I'm sure.. I wish Ubuntu would have shown what is possible with it as Kali does, it shouldn't be focused on hacking. Kali and Parrot is for that and those should not be a daily driver unless you really know how to secure them. But it's really cool the way Kali points you the right direction on getting involved in the community and showing you the way so to speak...Ubuntu did none of that in my opinion 🤷
@TechHut - Thanks again for the hard work 🤘🏼😎

I use kubuntu as my daily driver and its amazing
Thank you for your efforts and videos. Could you please tell me what softwares you are using for video production?
Thank you! This video was done with OBS Studio, Kdenlive, and GIMP. 🐧Filming was done on a Canon M50 and a OnePlus 7T.
In your test which filesystem did you install on each distro? Opensuse's btrfs should be a bit slower actually right?
By default (as far as I know and what I’m personally using) openSuSE only uses btrfs for / and xfs for /home fyi
@@smusic-vm1zd yeah, it should affect installation and boot time. Though I don't think it's the main cause for the slow installation process.
@@bala5984 when you download opensuse there is 4gb iso file or you can download live version under 1gb and let other files be downloaded over net. Probably thats the reason why it took longer to install. Other linx distributions are around 2gb.
You should do this again but with more distros like void and more arch based distros
great video, thanks
Такие тесты лучше всего делать с программируемой мышкой - скрипт будет делать одинаковые действия по времени. Открыти окна - кто победил, копирование файлов - кто победил. Синхронизация может быть начало движения из одного места на экране.
Interesting. While OpenSUSE hast the slowest package manager, it's the snappiest in use.
So I am happy with my Manjaro 😊
Good Job, thank you !!!
To be fair... do a video with no systemd distros. They are better and faster than distros with systemd. But i would like to see it in depth! I use void and artix. You could also do the same with different init systems: runit, openrc, systemd, sysvinit which are the most common nowdays.
#good benchmarking position and strategy.
This man deserve millions of views.
Someday :)
Overall all linux distribution have slightly same performance....
Afterall, It's all depend on your comfortable linux distribution and DE
on basemark i got 1521.81 on arch linux kde amd 5900x/3080ti 32 ram asus strix using firefox. geekbench 1724/13541
OpenSUSE is the KING of KDE!
Point not made w/o argument.
Make video on rolling release distros
Could you add Linux Mint and Zorin OS? As the one who prepares to try Linux, these 2 look attractive to me.
Could you do a speed test between Opensuse vs Fedora. I can't decide between them.
Which one works best with AMD rx6700xt? Seems like every Linux distro i have tried renders bad lagging and choppy unplayable games
Try freeBSD and Debian, these mostly perform well.
When GIMP and others do timely updates for FBSD.
@@madthumbs1564 Huh? FreeBSD has more recent versions than many of the GNU/Linux distros.

You should try Artix Plasma,without systemd. It's really fast.
Could you do a comparison between Manjaro XFCE vs Manjaro KDE Plasma?
it looks like that Opensuse has the lead because of the animation timmings but only in applications like dolphin
Great job!!! Please add Fedora 33 Plasma +btrfs and Kubuntu +ZFS ? "experimental" ..wonderful Day
Have you ever tried obarun as distro?
The S6 / 66 init system seems blazing fast.
Archlinux (or Manjaro) with Hyprland
More stable the system better is for compiling and things.
manjaro is stable af, if you know what you are doing. i have been using it for a while now, never failed me and has always worked great on my old system.
Waiting for MX Linux comparisons
