Freesync works with in kernel drivers for sure, it was a little work, but worth it. Used it before i sold my undervolted <edit>(made it cooler, quieter and increased performance!)</edit> RX570, can't say how the situation is with newer cards. Arch Wiki [1],[2] is an invaluable resource as always, applies to other distros as well. If your base is Ubuntu you will need newer Mesa packages, which you can get here [3] (more recent/bleeding edge but used by default by some distributions, the one tested by Phoronix) or there [4] (addition) Had this [5] in bookmarks, looks solid.
