I understand that AMD drivers are open source and less of a hassle to work compared to Nvidia. But what else? What model should I look for? I don’t care for raytracing or other dumb gimmicks. Just want to run my map games and cowboy games without lag and crashes. Upscaling compatible is preferred in case I want to play newer slop without buying a new card.
this, i just got rid of mine because of a whole thing trying to get VR working without the drivers crashing with steamvr (this is a whole other post tbh) and wanting to get my dad a better video card but the 6800 XT is really good in Linux.
Nvidia is ok so far on Linux, KDE’s HDR tonemapping doesn’t work right. Games run good in Wayland even, open source drivers recommended now, for VR there’s a few tweaks to make but it works ok.
