Hello all, first time poster.

I've been gaming on Ubuntu for a few months now with no issues on my 2080ti.

It's time to upgrade my card before Starfield comes out, but I haven't seen too many positives regarding Radeon on Linux.

Does anyone have any experience with this? I'd like to get the 7900 XTX over a 4090 for the price difference alone.

My AMD CPU has been great on Ubuntu.

I have an RX 6800 (before I had a GTX 1080) and Linux works pretty well with AMD. You don't even need proprietary drivers.

I only installed 1 proprietary library to enable ROCM but keeping the stock amd kernel GPU driver.
