For what GPUs?

This is an honest question, and I appreciate your answer in advance.

I have a desktop with an HD 6850 and the radeon driver has always worked well, I used to play DOTA2 on it.

But this is a very old GPU now, and all newer models (HD7xxx and up) were having performance issues with the radeon driver last time I was reading the forums.

R9 270X in my case. The Rx 3xx and newer (and they're slowly porting it to older devices) use the newer AMDGPU driver stack, which is supposed to be even better, but I haven't tried that myself yet.
