Im may not be the person asked but i can still give you 1 particularly impactful case: minecraft. Now Minecraft (java) has native linux support so this isn’t valve’s doing but i get a massive performance lift in minecraft. On my old pc on windows i had barely 50 fps. On Linux i had 80 that’s 30 fps more with the exact same mods and settings
Windows actually can run the games faster if there’s wasn’t so many BS Microsoft ad services and antiviruses running in the background holding it back. I have a dual boot setup with a lite version of windows packaged by some Russian guy i don’t trust and it runs things was faster than the normal MS windows.
I love that so many people rather use a sus version of windows than actual windows… on an unrelated note where would one aquire such a windows version? Asking for a friend

File system operations are often faster. This is in part due to Windows doing more; it has a more complex and more flexible permissions system.
Spawning threads and processes is also normally faster. Linux apps thinks nothing of spawning lots of processes with abandon, then have them opening and closing files all over the place. If you move it straight over to a Windows machine it will tend to run very badly as a result.
What are those cases?

Just use chris titus’ debloat tool, and don’t bother with sus windows. Link: https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil
Does it also remove all the spayware? Sorry i mean “telemetry”
Yes, it removes the spyware. You can call it telemetry if you want.
…but trust Microsoft even less, no doubt. Russian guy might be fucking with you, but MS definitely is.
I believe directx 10 games run better on dxvk or whatever, to the point that people recommend it on Windows for some games (GTA IV)
