So while the unfortunate lack of NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 series access and Radeon RX 6900 series hardware, it's mostly a matter of showing how far the Radeon RX 7900 series has come over prior generations for today's cross-GPU results.

In addition to the strong raw performance, the performance-per-Watt was also looking very good under Linux. The RX 7900 series cards were consuming less power than even the GeForce RTX 3080... While the GeForce RTX 4080 and 4090 cards consume even more power there. So for those concerned about power efficiency, the Radeon RX 7900 XT / RX 7900 XTX are looking very good.

For some of the Linux games the leads weren't too dramatic while it will be interesting to re-test once the Ryzen 9 7950X system support is working properly as well as seeing what RADV optimizations the Valve developers manage to land over the days ahead.
