I'm thinking about buying a new GPU. I'm looking at the 7700 xt as it's about £355 and I want Linux support and I like newer features. Before I pull the trigger can anyone tell me why I'm making a huge mistake?

Only reason not to get an AMD card is if you want to run local AI stuff like stable diffusion. AMD cards can still be used, but not all features are supported.

Otherwise it should be a great card.

I understand that but my current NVIDIA card is useless on Linux. I do a little AI stuff but I’ve mostly moved to the cloud for that.
