The RADV driver in Mesa for AMD GPUs on Linux and Steam Deck is set to get Ray Tracing turned on by default for the upcoming Mesa 23.2 release.

Don’t normally post on Reddit but figured I’d give it a go here. Excited to see ray tracing on the Steam Deck even if it’s not great, as my desktop GPU is an aging rx580 thus incapable of RT. Would like to try RT Minecraft, or other older games with this feature.

It performs decently enough in Doom Eternal, but generally I don’t think ray tracing will ever be power efficient enough to be worth it on a handheld device.
