i try to keep it short: i have issues with some games (like the witcher 3) and often hear that its an issue with nvidia drivers etc..
So my question is: would a switch / small upgrade to a AMD Radeon 6800 be worth it?
I switched back to x11 because KDE always crashed. Forgot to mention that problem.

I've switched from 3090 to the XTX few months back because of a really weird and unique bugs in one of my games (but otherwise it worked alright) and for few months had a lot more problems then I had with nvidia, especially with suspend but sometimes it would just crash (Plasma).
I did also switch to Plasma/Wayland with the upgrade so who knows but few kernels/mesa versions back were really bad, it works nicely now though [Arch]
