Drivers
At first I had some serious issues - FPS in some (not all) games was very poor and the sound was stuttering in a very irritating way. With time also the displays was starting stutter. See this thread for details. To fix that I had to downgrade Radeon drivers to 20.4.2. Since then everything has been working fine.
