tl;dr big performance improvement in ray tracing on AMD cards coming, with the dev claiming a 3x performance boost in Hitman 3.

Wait, AMD can raytrace on Linux? All the games I play on my 6800xt have the raytracing graphics options disabled.

Edit: I'm an idiot, I forgot the 7xxx series has actual RT cores.

I case you want to try it out, the setting I've used in Steam was:

RADV_PERFTEST=rt VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr11 %command%
