Re: Radeon card recommendations
RX 550 or X 540 might do what you are looking for. They are older-gen tech, but it sounds like they will meet your needs.

Re: Radeon card recommendations
I've been digging through some of the Arch and Gentoo documentation trying to get a handle on which of the older Radeon cards use the drivers built into the kernel. While they do a good job about telling me chipsets and GCN architecture, I'm still struggling to find a card. The Optiplex 9020 I own uses a PCIe x16 slot, first generation or possible second. I've been using the integrated Intel for now but would like to add a discrete GPU. If I'm reading the Arch and Gentoo docs correctly most of the cards seem to be more gaming oriented and require a connection to the PSU. Ideally I'm looking for a card that does not require a connection to the PSU is 2 or 4GB and can support a 4K monitor. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. -S- --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: https://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
Re: Radeon card recommendations
Nvidia doesn't naturally support it yet, but it can. But for AMD I would suggest looking at the 5500 and 5600 XT's they are pretty fantastic for the buck.

Radeon card recommendations
Looking for some recommendations on a discrete graphics card for a Dell Optiplex 9020 and an HP z27S monitor. I'm moving to PopOS and would like to get the most out of the monitor. If 21.04 moves to Wayland I understand AMD is well supported whereas Nvidia does not support it. --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: https://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
