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

      No it’s true. Amd has much better linux support using the kernel modules. Which get a more stable and up to date experience under Linux.

      How do you know all the places I have heard and seen this information from?

      amd is easier to work with on linux, nothing to do with echo chambers

      I don’t give a hoot about what nvidias drivers are in fact

      All I wanted to know was an equivalent to my card or what an upgrade would be
