Well actually I dont play games on linux, but I like to see how it is
performing.
What is interesting for is using a set up that does the offloading

However it seems that the optimus support for linux is not good at all, and
I hope it get better eventually.
I am beginning to thinks that maybe Linus was right NVIDIA!!
