     @verita84 yea, i'd personally just shelf it away as a backup if i had to buy an AMD GPU, but i personally don't think it's worth spending more money on another GPU when the one i have right now works

     @verita84 i chose nvidia because it's what i had all the time and because i never cared about hardware specific like that on linux, so when i got a new one, i bought a used 1060 instead of an AMD

     @lina
     
     I am new to the GPU scene. Why choose NVIDIA over ATI?
     
     
     Both play games well
     Both support Stable Diffusion
     
     ATI works out of the box without installing proprietary drivers. Open Source drivers are actually preferred.

     @lina @verita84 nope. the literal only reason was after their source code leaked literally no one cared to steal it because it was so ass. that gave them the green light from legal dept.

     @lina @verita84 I've always gone Nvidia because amd is routinely bad for emulation, and Nvidia cards are more than just raw performance. Even though amd has upscaling and will soon have frame generation, it isn't and won't ever be as good as what Nvidia has. In terms of raw performance, amd has it nailed, but they still manage to feel a generation behind Nvidia all the time.

     @lina @verita84 I mean have you seen this Remix shit Nvidia has in the works?? Adding in RT and new models/textures to old games on the fly without needing to actually mod them. It's crazy. They released a trailer for an upcoming HL2 project that illustrates the concept really well.
