> the GPU gets locked to roughly 780 MHz on Linux instead of the 2 GHz-plus it hits on Windows
This has been an issue on Linux since 2014, and the gtx980.

The GPUs start up with the lowest speeds, and only the binary driver has the bits needed to "reclock" the card. That's partially why the oss driver sucks these days.
Even if this is an intentional nerf by Nvidia, which I doubt, then then nerf is buggy.
