For Counter-Strike 2 running on this HP Strix Halo laptop, Mesa RADV outperformed AMDVLK. Even using the older RADV driver shipped by Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS was delivering better performance for the Radeon 8060S Graphics than the current AMDVLK driver.
With Cyberpunk 2077 on Linux via Steam Play, the Mesa RADV driver was outperforming AMDVLK by a significant margin. Even the older RADV release was faster than AMDVLK.
With HITMAN on Steam Play the AMDVLK driver continued trailing behind the Mesa RADV driver on this HP ZBook Ultra G1a laptop with Radeon 8060S Strix Halo Graphics.
