I’m currently on EndeavourOS that i set up like a week ago and I’m using a 4070 currently, I’m really new to Linux I used mint for about two months and just swapped over to EndeavourOS, but I wanted to know the proper way to swap over to the AMD card some people are saying I need to remove the Nvidia drivers and the add AMDs drivers then swap or others are saying just drop it in and then last is I have to reinstall the os, what is the proper way to do my upgrade? Thanks in advance sorry for the formatting

    Why do you regret it? I’m currently using a 2080 but I’m thinking of upgrading to a 9070 XT when I can get hold of one

      If I’m paying $2k+ for a card, I want to be able to fully utilize it, and not just for the occasional bit of gaming.

      CUDA has far more support than ROCm for a variety of things, from 3D render/design applications to AI powered tools. Nothing sucks more than coming across a nifty app or tool and finding out you can’t use it because you chose the wrong GPU.

        Ah fair enough, I have heard that’s an issue but I can’t really see it being a problem for me as I will basically just be using it for gaming

      Like I said I just got my card but even coming a 4070 I enjoy this card a lot, it’s just raw power and in my opinion it makes everything run so much smoother even in games like cyberpunk where my fps isnt that drastically different as I didn’t use ray tracing before anyway and if you do end up with one a cool thing to note I haven’t tinkered much but I immediately dropped 50 watts off the card and it’s performing the same as it did with all 300 something watts
