tl;dr big performance improvement in ray tracing on AMD cards coming, with the dev claiming a 3x performance boost in Hitman 3.

You've been able to enable RT on a SteamDeck with the native (Linux based) OS for about 5+ months now. Performance may vary and it's certainly not going to measure up to a 69xx/79xx series card, but it can do about 30FPS on Doom Eternal, at the native 800P screen which is pretty neat for a portable running an APU :-)
