go AMD + Linux, this is the way

I bought an AMD GPU before and the experience was so horrible that it's deterred me from ever buying one again.

I never knew how good I had it with Nvidia until I tried AMD. The main issue? Drivers. AMDs drivers were abysmally shit. I never had to 'choose' specific versions of Nvidia drivers to get them to work. I did with AMD, and some features would work while others would break depending on the version.

Ended up returning it because it was that bad.

[–] superguy@lemm.ee -1 points 10 months ago

Both. The experience was horrible on both.
