I've run intel/nvidia with Arch Linux for the last 14 years.
I upgraded recently from an intel/nvidia setup (GTX 1070) to a zen3 w/ a Radeon 6800.
Honestly, both nvidia and AMD have excellent support on Linux. Both hardware decode, play steam games, are stable, support the latest kernel etc..
However, latest steam games (and proton in particular) is better tested against Mesa (AMD OSS drivers), so it's the place to be for gaming on linux.
AMD also tears less on Linux, and supports Wayland (though Wayland support could be the reason for less tearing).
Either way, I'm fully AMD now and wouldn't go back. I see zero downsides, and a few upsides.
