I also have an A770. Don't use it for AI, but it runs fine for general 3D use (which mostly means either Minecraft, other similarly casual games, or demoscene shaders). I'm pretty sure I'm not utilizing it fully most of the time.
My main complaint is that the fan control just doesn't work. They stay at low speed or off no matter how hot the card gets, until it shuts down due to overheating. Apparently there's a firmware update to fix this, but you need Windows to flash it. You can zip-tie a spare fan somewhere pointing at the card...
Secondary complaint is that it's somehow not compatible with Linux's early boot console, so there's no graphical output until the driver is loaded. You'd better have ssh enabled while setting it up.
It's also incompatible with MBR/BIOS boot since it doesn't include an option ROM or whatever is needed to make that work - so I switched to UEFI (which I thought I was already using).
When I ran a shader "competition" some people's code with undefined behaviour ran differently on my GPU than theirs. That's unavoidable regardless of brand and not an Intel thing at all.
