The amdgpu driver has been working well on CIK dGPUs for years. Now that the DC analog connector support landed, these GPUs are at feature parity with the old radeon driver.
Additionally, amdgpu yields extra performance, supports Vulkan and provides more display features through DC as well as more robust power management.
