Been using AMD gpus for years due to their superb Linux support. Would like to play around with AI image generation completely offline so a Nvidia gpu is kinda must. Besides that I do some gaming as well.
Currently I have AMD RX 6750 XT and am considering replacing it with a RTX 5060 TI with 16 GB vram. How well does Nvidia gpus work in modern Linux systems. I’m running Tumbleweed with KDE plasma on X11.
Other hardware is Ryzen 7 7700X and an Asrock B650 PG Lightning motherboard.
Edit: Been using InvokeAI so far but cpu only is super slow.
That gpu generation is few moths shy of being 10 years old so it’s unlikely 50 series would end support in a few years.
My secondary PC has a GPU in it that is more than 16 years old. Works as if it was brand new. I’d be pretty pissed if the support for any part of that PC just ended for no other reason that a billion dollar company trying to safe a few bucks 🤷
True that. That’s why I originally chose amd components for this computer. They’ll be supported until the sun explodes (give or take).
