Yesterday I've spent an hour to figure out how to make Cities Skylines use my RTX 2070 instead of the integrated one on PopOS. For me this is the main issue I face with games. Is having a dedicated AMD card instead better?
Afaik AMD has always been better supported on Linux.
AMD is easier for sure, but not for this. I think you may have to tell proton to use a specific card when starting up, or display. I'd start by googling environment variables with vulkan or proton to tell it which card to use. I think there was something like DEVICE=1 or something like that that you put before your command
I don't think that just by having an AMD card would solve your issue. Granted that with AMD there's hardly any setup required.
