I just bought a used Ayaneo 2 handheld, it has an old(er) mobile RDNA 2 GPU and I was blown away by how well this thing performed under Linux. Almost everything (that's not a recent AAA game) runs beautiful and a lot faster/smoother than it does under Windows. The experience has been so good that I'm considering switching my main pc (with a 9070XT) to Linux as well.

No doubt Timur contributed heavily to this given Valves Steamdeck (which uses a very similar but slower GPU).

Given the current hardware prices it's pretty awesome to see someone squeezing maximum performance out of old hardware!

I wonder if some of these could carry over for LLM inference. It will be nice to turn more ewaste GPUs into capable processing units for LLM.
