What is this "real gaming" you are referring to?  
I'm only gaming on Linux for about 10 years now and it is steadily getting better compared to other platforms.

PC with a recent AMD GPU, EndeavourOS/Manjaro, Proton with DXVK, or even native games on Steam and there are more than enough games you get better performance in than on windows.  
Just RTX Raytracing and DLSS are shit on Linux, which Nvidia tricked people into making the default benchmark right now.

The relative performance is even bigger on older/cheaper systems. Is it better performance than on any console? Yes.   
Is it as easy as a console? No.
