I have a 6800xt. Undervolting works fine in Linux. You need to set a kernel option to enable it.

Force feedback wheels work in Linux too. The "Linux" builds of games tend to have inferior or missing implementations, but running the windows binary through proton should work pretty well. The input layer in Linux is a bit fiddly; you need to set up obscure udev rules to eliminate dead zones for a steering wheel.

I actually built a force feedback wheel from scratch as a hobby project. I developed the firmware in Linux originally, but switched to Windows so that I could more easily run force feedback test programs. When I bother to set it up, I am probably also setting up VR too. VR works in Linux pretty well these days too, but all the subtle reliability problems compound. On any given day, 80% chance of game launching * 80% of wheel working * 80% chance of VR startinf means it only works 50% of the time. So I just boot into Windows, which works more like 90% of the time.
