Hey everyone,

Planning on buying a new gpu to use it on Linux since I'm tired of using Nvidia. I already tried to search for some benchmarks of Intel Arc on linux but they seem to be outdated.

Do you think it is worth to get a intel arc a770 or just go with AMD for mainly 1080p gaming? Or are the drivers for intel still too new and should wait for the next gen? :)

Nvidia was also the default choice for linux until about 5 years ago. Both companies used to only have closed source drivers and AMD's was not very good. The situation got better when AMD rewrote/open sourced their linux driver in 2017
