Hey all,
In the market for a GPU, would like to use Bazzite, mostly a Steam user with some SteamVR (rare), and have run into nvidia issues with Bazzite and a 3070 previously.
With the recent news on nVidia’s beta drivers and Plasma’s sync support in beta, I’m newly on the fence about switching to AMD given nvidia having a better performance to cost ratio, the power usage (big one for a compact living room system), and the fact that they have the potential for HDMI2.1 support which AMD doesn’t have a solution to yet.
What are community thoughts? I’ll probably hold out for some reports on the new drivers regardless, but wanted to check in with the hive mind.
Thanks!

Go read the “reviews” on this site. Then click on the user GPUpro.
That site is hot garbage and the owner for some reason hates AMD with a raging passion. Even the Intel subreddit used to ban its use just for how bias it was in their favour
So that site is heavily biased toward Nvidia?

Thanks for the info. 👍
