As per the title really. I’d be looking to pick one up second hand and use it on EndeavourOS.

Is there a really worthwhile boost in performance moving to the 6700XT, or should I wait a bit longer to get something else higher end? I will not consider Nvidia as a Linux user.

    I had a 5700XT years ago with a ultrawide monitor and couldnt play games at a decent framerate unless I lowered settings to medium at the highest iirc. Frames over resolution I learned.

    For my new pc years later I skipped the 6000 series and currently have a 7800XT with a normal 1440p monitor and I find I still have to keep the settings around medium to high to get good fps (around 80-100 in games like baldurs gate 3). I think the 7800XT is a extremely fair price to performance right now before the gpu market gets bad with tarrifs and nvidia being nvidia.
