I was hoping this could be a viable option for someone who last built a new PC nearly a decade ago now, and can’t stomach the idea of spending more on one flagship card than my entire old build cost altogether.
At the same time, with all the invasive changes Microsoft has made to Windows during that time, I am not building another Windows PC. Last I looked the Intel Arc series of cards had crappy support for Linux so hopefully that improves.
I’m happily running my Linux gaming machine with steam and an AMD Radeon RX580.
I’m also happily playing decades-old games, so maybe I’m not stressing it! Last I checked, it ran Warframe just fine on windows, but that was a few years ago now.
Wonder what the driver support will be like…

Right my GPU died the other day, in thought about upgrading and shits damn expensive.
