Best GPU type for Linux gaming PC? (lemy.lol)

I'm building a new controller "10ft" gaming PC for my living room. The CPU is a Ryzen 5 3600X and the motherboard is Asus ROG Strix X570-I. I have never done a Linux-based gaming PC before and I want everything to "just work" as best as possible.

I assume this means go with Bazzite and an AMD gpu? Anything else I need to be aware of? As I said the goal after configuring is for it to be entirely controller-controlled (8bitdo ultimate and DS4).

Really? You can get an RTX 3060 card for under $300 USD. Someone else in the thread recommended the RX6700xt which is double the price. You're saying the AMD has worse performance (not in Linux)?

lol you are not gaming with Ray tracing on a 3060 unless its 240p @ 30fps with DLSS on.
