What is the state of raytracing on Linux. Does it work on new games that are released with raytracing.

Does the game have to be native or does it work through Proton?

Is the performance comparable? Better? Worse?

Is it only working for AMD? Only for Nvidia? Both? (Neither?)

    I thought that was only novel because the steam deck doesn’t have ray tracing-specific hardware. It was also on a game that otherwise wasn’t very graphically intensive.

    If your graphics card has ray tracing hardware, then it already worked (albeit maybe not as smoothly as on windows, check protondb for details per game).
