Usually I’m not hopefull for newly released cards but this arch has already been out for almost a year so it should be a bit less dire, right?
[edit] So the results are in and the verdict is: still kind of unreliable with some people having a good time and some having a bad time. Awesome. I’ll just wait a bit. Thanks for the comments everyone 👍
Im running a 7000 card on Arch since January (7900xt) without issues. For the first 1-2 months I had to install the git version of the drivers from a separate repo, but it still worked like a charm, a thousand times better than Nvidia (not only performance wise)
VR is atrocious, everything else is amazing, though I think I'm having issues with something related to OBS screen capture causing hitching. Could be a number of things inside or outside of Mesa.
VR has been atrocious on AMD linux for years what the hell are they even doing
It's really no better on NVIDIA, in fact its much worse since async reprojection likes to break more often on NVIDIA for some reason, VR in general on Linux is atrocious.
From what I understabd AMD cards are very well supported with Mesa.
