What the title says. I can tolerate rather old cards that still constitute a decent upgrade, such as the better 20xx series or amd equivalents and what not. I will buy the proper psu to feed it before I actually buy the card.

      This for sure. I’ve heard about the blackmail schemes NVIDIA will go to ensure people don’t realize that the reviewers are kinda toast if they don’t say nice things about it. I use an NVIDIA GPU myself for AI purposes and video editing, because I need the power of NVIDIA for those particular purposes.

      I think reviewers like Gamers Nexus have some sort of idea of how that works.

      Ahh I think that’s what borked my system a few days ago. Corrupted postfix service and I had to spend an evening finding out how to re-install it and the driver, which I ended up having to reinstall twice.
