Except that Intel still doesn't make a graphics chip worth anything when it comes to running 3D games like Fortnight. And AMD opensource drivers are far from having nVidia-like feature and capabilitiy parity with their Windwos counterparts. Sadly.

What is missing from AMD's drivers? They are great now IME, I'm using them to play games. (Note I have older GCN hardware - there seem to be more bugs with more recent hardware where they are still making bigger changes)

OpenGL performance. NVidia tends to be far more performant than AMD on OpenGL games.

AMD has put more work into Vulkan, but a lot of games on Linux are still on OpenGL. See the CEMU community for details: https://www.reddit.com/r/cemu/comments/7nehtz/cemu_1113_amd_...
