Radeon on Ubuntu? (lemmy.world)

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.

For how great AMD usually is on Linux, it's not without it's issues. RDNA2 (the entire RX 6000 series) still suffers to this day from this 2 years old issue that can cause stutter in games as the GPU constantly downclocks itself aggressively. I still prefer it over Nvidia (having owned one and now using AMD) but just be aware, it's not all as perfect as some Linux users would have you believe.
