NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Linux Gaming/Graphics Performance
But when engaging Vulkan ray-tracing is where the NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards spring ahead of the AMD Radeon competition... Particularly when using the Mesa RADV driver where its ray-tracing performance still isn't as well tuned as it could be, as shown by the recent AMDVLK vs. RADV results. With the Breaking Limit benchmark and RT enabled, the RTX 5070 was matching the RX 7900 XTX while delivering greater performance per Watt.
Across all of the ray-tracing scenarios with Vulkan on Linux, the NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs performed great and continued showing off the NVIDIA RTX advantage for ray-traced gaming on Linux.
For those wondering, the GeForce RTX 5070 was working out fine with its OpenGL driver too and competing well with the Radeon RX 9070.
