Hi, I have Debian 12 "Bookworm" currently, and my video card is an
Nvidia GTX 970. While I'm happy with its speed, I'm not happy with the
proprietary nature of its driver, nor its brokenness (1). So, I seek a
replacement card whose driver is in the mainline kernel (2). I've heard
AMD and Intel GPUs are generally not bad. Do you have any further
recommendations or anti-recommendation? Thanks.
1: Its fans don't work, so I wrote a script to modulate the case fans
and CPU throttle based on its temperature.
2: If you wish to recommend a particular card, keep in mind that cheap
is imperative (like <$150 cheap), used is OK, and I have three monitors.
