Can anyone help me pick out a budget friendly (sub $200) graphics card?
-
Doesn’t have to be current generation
-
I won’t be gaming at all on the PC
-
Needs to run well on Linux
-
Must run 3 monitors
-
Biggest workout it will get is streaming security cams on one screen, full screen video on another.
-
Power supply is only 295W and I’d rather not upgrade it.
Any help is much appreciated!
are you sure you want to go with an Nvidia card, I’ve had plenty of problems with Nvidia drivers before
Nvidia drivers are fine on Linux. There may be contention with how the are distributed (closed source) but as far as installing them and using them, it’s trivial at the point.
it’s not that they are hard to install, just that they are worse than AMD ones
Yeah, you’re right. Might as well go with AMD. NVidia works but isn’t needed. I think NVidia generally has low power draw though, so just check to make sure.
