I’m thinking about buying a new GPU. I’m looking at the 7700 xt as it’s about £355 and I want Linux support and I like newer features. Before I pull the trigger can anyone tell me why I’m making a huge mistake?

Just keep in mind the 6000 series cards don’t support AV1 encode and the ray tracing performance is much worse.

This is noteworthy. I have a Sapphire 7800xt Nitro+. I play in 1080p, currently grinding my way to the top in night city. Cyberpunk runs at 150+ FPS on ultra settings with RT off. Turn ray tracing on? 50fps.
