Veronica Olsen 🏳️‍🌈🇳🇴🌻<p>Is there anyone on here that has a recommendation for NVIDIA graphics cards? I haven't used them for a very long time, only AMD, so not really up to date on them.</p><p>I need it to run fine on Linux, which I hope has improved now. I will use it for not very demanding games like WoW, and for Machine Learning. I currently have an AMD Radeon RX 5700 GPU.</p><p>I was considering a Dual GeForce RTX 4070 OC, since it would fit in my box.
