Very well, I've looked it up, it's actually true, the 6800 TX is ~3.6 % faster than a 3070 Ti, and ~5 % slower than a 3080, so somewhere in between those two :D.
Plus from what I was reading about Linux gaming specifically, in some workloads Nvidia is just worse due to some of their driver deficiencies, like with vkd3d-proton especially. So I don't regret getting 6800 XT since at least currently I'm playing Cyberpunk 2077.

This was quite true some time ago but right now, especially with Ampere, the performance is really close to windows. I'm playing cyberpunk again, started last year with a 2060, and the performance was basically 70% when compared to windows. Now I've moved to a 3060ti and tested again and when compared to windows I'm losing around 5 to 10% only. And we also have DLSS working with Cyberpunk, I'm not really sure how Lutris team did it, but DLSS is working perfectly on this game. :)
I get around 80 fps with max settings and 2560 x 1440 with RX 6800 XT so that works well without upscaling.

I was lucky to update in updating in early 2020. If I would sit on my old hardware now, I'd just keep on sitting on it. ;)
Yes. It did, in some games the performance with VKD3d is better than with DXVK for me, for instance with Mortal Shell. With DXVK I need to put the shadows on low otherwise in some places I get less than 30 fps, some weird bug. With VKD3D I get 75fps all the time on all areas with just a few slowdowns, playing at 3440x1440 with everything on ultra.
Cyberpunk with DLSS on Performance and everything on ultra I get around 50 to 60 fps at this resolution.
Without DLSS something around 30fps.
The latest tests I've seen from Phoronix show the 6800 XT overall beating out the 3070 Ti rather easily and even edging out the 3080 overall (note: not the 3080 Ti; they don't currently have one of those to test). On those tests, the 6800 (non-XT) results look more like what you've stated.
Of course, Phoronix results are Linux only, but I'm not generally concerned with Windows results because I don't use Windows at home for anything but tying in to work (and that only because the software that lets me answer my work desk phone from home only works on Windows). Since they've shifted us back to coming into the office, I don't even really do that anymore (I can do on-call work from home on Linux).
If you have Linux results from another source I'd like to add it to the sources I look at for reference.
Thanks.

Yeah, at this resolution I'd imagine you might need upscaling with that card. I'm using 2560x1440 so didn't face the need for it so far.
