Honestly, this is why I still haven't switch to Linux. I have an Nvidia card that I use for stuff like Substance Painter and between that and games, if I was dual-booting I'd probably be running windows 90%-95% of the time. That said, it's a 3060ti and not a 3080m, so the desktop cards might play nicer than the mobile chips, but still...
If the benchmarks came out on par or with greater performance for Linux then I'd probably switch and either dual-boot or run windows 10 in a VM for the stuff that doesn't play nice with compatibility layers.
Nvidia drivers have had way more issues with mobile chips than with desktop. GPU compute workloads (including things like Blender) are very well supported. Nvidia on Linux has dominated the compute market for a long time.
