Not if you play games and want things to work 99% of the time. Things are a lot better than they were, but this exact problem came up in the Bazzite discord server recently where some of the devs are testing them and there's been videos by lots of creators comparing their results to previous years. If you don't game or don't mind inconsistent results for the cost, then yes. Linus Torvalds does not meaningfully 'game' to the extent that this is a problem for him. All he cares about is that it lets him do his work and use his displays.
