Nvidia 980 Ti 6GB, or AMD RX Vega 64 8GB? (kbin.social)

I have been offered a choice between these two cards, and I'm not sure which one will perform better in linux at this point. If it was Windows I would just go with the Nvidia and call it a day, but the driver situation on Linux has me leaning towards AMD. Is the AMD the right choice?

I'm using the Garuda distro.

Even if the cards were equal in performance, the 2GB of missing VRAM from the 980 would be the deal breaker.
