As many already know, nvidia is not the best choice for linux and amd is always recommend when it is brought up, so here id like to ask an equivalent to my graphics card in amd, i know nothing about amd and dont really know where to start honestly.
GPU: gtx 1660 super processor: 11th gen i5-11400 2.60hgz x 6
what would be a similar or better choice from amd in terms of gpu that maybe doesnt cost an arm and a leg? Do nvidia or amd matter in terms of games?
any help would be very appreciated
Try an Ubuntu dist-upgrade with Nvidia drivers installed and report back.
It’s a bit of cheating because Ubuntu supports dist-upgrade only if you use nothing but universe. Granted it might work still but if it doesn’t your paid support will just tell you to restore a backup and try with universe packages only. At least that’s what I heard. But it’s been long since I used Ubuntu and maybe the situation is better nowadays. Back then, this screwed be over big time.
