Radeon on Ubuntu? (self.linux_gaming)

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.

Any AMD gpu works out of the box on any linux distro...

While this is true the linux kernel + Mesa package versions needs to be new enough in your distro too
this is the case for Ubuntu 22.04.02 and Ubuntu 23.04 but not for the older but still supported Ubuntu 20.04.04
