I finally gave up my Nvidia 2070 Super and rejoined Team red with a 9070 XT. And it's like this is the way everything was always meant to be.

HDR works without breaking font rendering. Sleep states just work. No more random border flickering in fullscreen or borderless windows. And the fans never even spin up.

I did have to unwind a couple Nvidia workarounds to swap over successfully (like /etc/environment needed cleaning up for sddm-greeter-qt to not core dump).

No ragrets.

No regerts.

Team red 4lyfe (again).

If you know of any cottage shops making superlative GPUs, please let the community know!

As for this discussion, I have had very few problems with my RX 7800XT. Compare this to the issues and performance Nvidia GPUs have on Linux wrt gaming and the official drivers, and it really makes me hope that the recent work on NVK will eventually lead to some relief for our GeForce peeps.
