Buy a new graphics card because mine only outputs in HDMI AMD rx 6900 tx

1.420 / 5.000
It’s absolutely just about making the best choice and not about buying advice, but about which card works best under Manjaro Kde. I’m really fed up with stupid Windows and want to stay even if I still have a lot to learn.

Anyway, the graphics card is broken after the DP cable broke and only runs on hmdi and that is not compatible with my TFF that costs over 2500 euros. Actually, it’s my own fault if I only buy cheap stuff from China. So I just have one piece of advice before I buy a new graphics card. Which is better because all games run, I can even edit my videos and even edit my full-format Nikon raw formats, should I buy an Nvidia or Amd graphics card? Only a high-end graphics card, so as usual an Amd 6900 tx or Nvida rtx 4900 or Amd 7900, no name brand is needed?

The RAM for the upgrade is already on the way. My AMD CPU with 288 virtual cores will remain usable for a very long time.

Manjaro kde works really well for me and I’ve now looked at the whole thing with the programs I need and everything is included.

And a big thank you to the open source community. I learn something new every day and it’s great!

Thank you in advance.

Many greetings from Augusta Treverorum (Trier in the beautiful Potra Nigra and many other sights is worth a short trip)

The brandnew Intel B580. Actually the best bang for the buck that you can get. No Nvidia, AMD or Intel is well supported with Linux, Nvidia isn’t.
