Best GPU type for Linux gaming PC? (lemy.lol)

I'm building a new controller "10ft" gaming PC for my living room. The CPU is a Ryzen 5 3600X and the motherboard is Asus ROG Strix X570-I. I have never done a Linux-based gaming PC before and I want everything to "just work" as best as possible.

I assume this means go with Bazzite and an AMD gpu? Anything else I need to be aware of? As I said the goal after configuring is for it to be entirely controller-controlled (8bitdo ultimate and DS4).

AMD is easier to use with Linux. Get a rx6700xt or greater.

Thanks! How is AMD with ray tracing? I play a lot of survival horror and want to experience that spooky lighting
