    A pretty silly one but…

    AMD because they are better supported in Linux in my experience. I dropped Intel and Nvidia a while back now.

    Similarly, I have had better experiences with MSI for both motherboards and GPUs more recently than any other brand. ASUS was a long go-to for me but has failed me a lot more in the modern era.

      Only bad thing about amd gpus is the video transcoders are the weakest from the options. My jellyfin server, I installed an Arc a380 for $99. Cant beat it for the transcoding performance at that price.

      Amds are beasts too. It’s unfortunate they aren’t competing with top tier because they freaking brought it with the 6900xtx. Beats my Nvidia hand over fist.

      Only place I recommend Nvidia right now is if you’re doing AI workloads with CUDA - and even then amd is catching up

      I had to go for Nvidia last time as I needed a smaller form factor GPU which AMD didn’t seem to have at the time, but hopefully will be able to get back to AMD.

      Agree that ASUS appears to have gone a little downhill.
