Hello yall, currently I have an RTX 2060, which I’ll be passing down to slap a 1060 into my server, but I’d like to weigh some options first.

The 2060 has been pretty good with Linux thus far, I’m a little worried about going to the 30 series - so I’ll be accepting affirmations - but I am curious what any of you think about AMD cards and which one to get. Also if there’s any reason not to use a 1060 for jellyfin and such that would be very helpful

Edit: thanks yall! Settled on an RX6600, runs local LLMs like nothing compared to my ol 2060

    What are you going to use this GPU for. Simply for playing and you don’t care about ray tracing AMD is king. Or if you find a deal on Intel.

    Self hosting LLMs and hobby AI/ML projects, NVIDIA.

    Blender - NVIDIA

    Internet Streaming - NVIDIA

    Video editing - NVIDIA

    Plex/Jellyfin - Intel

    Unfortunately in most cases NVIDIA is still the king.

      Kinda lowballed and got an RX6600, honestly pretty chuffed how well it runs LLMs compared to my 2060. Still last gen, but admittedly I’ve only been playing factorio as of late, and Im not so graphics focused
