Having not played NV, what does Mr House do that's actually evil?
Has money? I've played it multiple times and the most I can think of is wanting to blow up the brotherhood of steel. He does have valid reasons though.

Obviously Ryan. Both men are ruthless visionaries, but only Ryan was dragged back down to reality and became what he hated in a vain attempt to protect his creation. By then, there was no point to it. Mr. House's plans are cold but carefully deliberated to achieve the best, possible, long-term outcome. Say what you will about the feasibility of his strategy, but the purity of his intentions never became diluted.

Directly? Nothing really. He tasks the player with eliminating or pitting opposing factions against each other to clear the way for his plans for New Vegas, but these are all in-service of his strategy to restore civilization after the fallout, plans which he details for you even down to milestones by year. The subtle hints from the storytelling that he may not be the perfect savior for humanity he believes himself to be, aside from his cold and calculating demeanor (and his failure at stopping nuclear winter to begin with which to his credit he does try to explain), are that he's a man living in a literal ivory tower, unable to see and interact with the outside world. He can gather information from his many security bots in the New Vegas strip and wastelands, but he's not living with other people. Dude's in a cryochamber, maximizing his lifespan so he can oversee the restoration personally.
Yeah
We live in the stupidest timeline. You don't even have to hide you're evil.

Just like Dr. Gregory House. A smart person who's also capable of doing damage at the scale of whole nations.

Kazuya Mishima in Tekken.
His son was worse
He's holding a fail safe trigger. If anything happens to him bad shit happens to some very important Microsoft executives. This explains everything, in plain sight just like his magical shelf of toys.

Aren't these guys from the 50s-60s? At that point being a multimillionaire (adjusted to inflation) would be a billionaire equivalent of today.

If you don't know one, or both of these names, you've missed some great games. Sorry for your loss.
You could, but Kotick is far worse.
I think Ricitello and Wilson are better counters to Kotick, despite maybe not being exactly billionaires.
Definitely at least as evil.
Technically Ryan's vision was clouded, because he failed to consider the cons of Human Nature.
Without regulation, individuals will usually try to do what they believe will benefit themselves, without regards to others, which was Raptures downfall.

What did House do that was so wrong.
1. He became rich.
2. He correctly and accurately predicted the war and how the Vault system was flawed.
3. He set up a system to protect his home from nuclear weapons, which worked. Meaning that a lot of building and infrastructure around Vegas and Hoover Dam were intact.
4. Later he tried to stop corrupt savages from destroying what little he managed to preserve. His "evil plan" was to revive a scientifically capable society to restore prosperity to the planet while not wanting to control how people live.
On the other hand Ryan was just a total bell end.

Andrew Ryan was a sad man who tried really hard to realize a beautiful dream, and lost his marbles because it fell apart horrifically.
House was a jerk.
Also, Bill Gates is literally more evil than both of them, and more so than many, if not all, fictional billionaires.

Ryan for me, House wasn't evil imo, just manipulative and controlling but he did save New Vegas, well in the game anyway, Ryan was playing god and Rapture was a mess in the end and they both killed people, but at least House did it after the armagedon lol.
