Fortunately, this fucking windows partition I only keep for VR with my shitty Oculus Rift CV1 reminds me how fucked up the alternative is. I can't fucking wait to get a Steam Frame and ditch it.

This is upgrading your AMD GPU on Linux. If it were nvidia then it'd be just as long as the Windows part, from what my friends have said
Perhaps now that nvidia's new driver excludes gtx-1000 series and older you would have to enter some commands to switch over gracefully.
For my 2070 to 5070 upgrade nothing was needed.
