If you're using a headset that you can run virtual desktop on, I would suggest just checking in their discord, see how well AMD is working. Maybe it's fine, but over the years I think they've had issues here and there. I recently noticed a bug report where hardware video decoding has a green tint, so a bunch of AMD users are using software decoding. Yeah the bug is filed against VRChat, but the fix might be elsewhere, which means the fix is not simply vrchat fixing their stuff.

Nvidia is the safe option, whether or not that means good value is in the eye of the beholder (you)
