The website I checked out to compare the cards showed the age of the cards.  The  710 was first sold in 2015 and 2017 for the 580. I can't see myself spending several hundred for the latest and greatest.

the 710 is almost a decade old even though it is being sold. the 580 is still several core architectures behind.

    I looked up the two cards you mentioned and they perform pretty
    much the same, but they appear to blow the GT710 out of the water
    if this is to be believed. I think I'll give up on getting nvenc
    to work on the gt 710.  I imagine the rx580 will do much better.

    The closest modern card are going to be the RX 580's or 5500xt

    Thise are in the 50-100 price range that the 710 is.

        The card I have now is a GeForce GT 710.  What Radeon card

        that turns out to be slower.

            I doubt it. They won't reveal the interface without an
            NDA that Free
            Software developers can't sign.

            Nvidia doesn't care. They're in the top 6 worldwide richest
            corporations because of their leadership in AI chips, so
            they don't
            care about a few Linux people stuck with Nvidia hardware.

            If you can, I'd advise you to do what I did and switch
            from Nvidia to
            Radeon the minute your machine exhibits the slightest
            flakiness or
            video artifacts.
