I read a few posts from a few years ago that they suffered from some sort of ring crash bug frequently.

If you’re currently on either of those cards, how is the stability nowadays? Any hiccups or problems, or is it 100% in gaming now?

Bonus question, does the Mesa driver allow you to access the VCN video encoder on the gpu?

EDIT: Thanks for all your responses, everyone! The consensus clearly shows they’re pretty balin’, and definitely worthy of switching away from Nvidia to. :D

    6700 XT user here. I’m gaming daily and I have no issues with it, or rather none specific to it’s RDNA2 chip.

    I can access the H264 and H265 video encoders in OBS via VA-API with no issues and they seem to work fine, as opposed to AMD’s Polaris architecture
