There's a wide range of options to go against NVIDIA when using Linux:

Not Open Source
Calls home to momma (often) with more info than it strictly needs- though some would put this in the column of win for faster reponse to fixes
Constant game of whack a mole with drivers, versions, updates breaking things
Ease of use
WAY overpriced (let's call AMD at least overpriced though)

I decided to go AMD 6+ years ago, and gaming is consistently good, I have spent a total of zero time fucking with drivers, and appreciate that AMD invests in the community vs. just profiting from it and the bang for the buck is a nice addition.

I tell everyone I know considering a gaming rig build to just go AMD - near same performance, better pricing, better drivers and company support / policies
