Choosing a GPU (pawb.social)
submitted 1 year ago by awooo@pawb.social to c/tech@pawb.social

I'm looking to upgrade from a dying RX 590, and I'm eyeing the RX 6950 XT, which I can get for slightly less than 800 USD, I'm wondering if that'd be a good choice.

It's mostly for gaming, but I kinda want to run ML stuff and blender on the side, so I hope ROCm works well enough for that, I want to avoid NVIDIA because of Linux.

You should look up some of the controversy with userbenchmark. The owner is a competitive shooter player so he favors single thread performance over basically everything. When he got called out by some big tech channels he had a tantrum and made pages on the site dedicated to trying to talk shit about them, linked right in the about page.

It's actually really funny.
