Bazzite, I want my PC to just work and not require me to maintain it, on top of that I need it to be game-ready and have good color management for work related stuff.

Same here with Bazzite. I freaking love it. I love the whole Ublue project. I haven't tried the Fedora Atomic spins, how do they differ from Ublue?

Any other take to add to this?

Ok now we know for sure it's the AMD GPU + Linux. Which is super strange, since AMD GPUs just work on Linux, and the opposite is common to happen with Nvidia.

The technical term is portception.

If you try an Nvidia GPU, try it with the Bazzite Nvidia image.

Can you check if the iGPU works ?

What will happen when Linus dies ?

Try using Bazzite, it's based on Fedora and it's geared towards ease of use, it comes pre-configured with great defaults. That's why I believe it might work for you. bazzite.gg

If that doesn't work, make sure you're plugging the cable to the GPU and that the GPU is set as main display output in the bios.

Could you try any other display to rule out things like EDID issues?

Yeah but the thing about being unsupported is that they can pull the plug anytime, like it happened with Apex.

I also let go things from my Windows past, namely the Adobe suite which I depended on for work. I freaking love Inkscape now more than Illustrator.

But normal users won't suck anything up.

Yeah, but what works? I just plugged my AMD GPU in my PC running Bazzite and it was my best experience ever with a PC. But I want to know what is AMD working on, specially if it has to do with the RT / HDR / color management areas.

A lot of these apps CAN run to different degrees, but the process to get it done isn't straightforward enough for normal users who expect to download it from the app store or the official web page and just click the installer, on top of that... there's the possibility that it could stop working anytime, since it is officially unsupported. If people depend on the app, they won't change the app, they just won't switch to Linux.
