Should I switch to amd? (beehaw.org)

I have been considering selling my 3060 ti and buying a 6700 xt for a while now. The main reasons are (potentially) switching to wayland, +4 gb of vram, hardware acceleration in firefox (and steam too, it's leaking vram for me with nvidia), potentially vr on linux with my quest 2 (a lot of things in alvr seem to be locked for nvidia) and better compatibility with linux in general. I don't really care for productivity or rtx and dlss (it's not like they work in most games anyway). The upgrade would cost me at most $75.

+1. Wait until the RX 7700 hits the market, it's suppised to be in between the 4070 range.
