Since I’ll mainly be running Linux on this, I may dual boot in the future, with UE4 I may have to any ways, I am wondering about any possible instability issues I may run into with this setup, especially since the board is a newer release. I choose to stick with ASUS(Tuf) since my last board, that has lasted me around 7 years (Tuf 990fx 2.0) and it was an open box, that they RMA’d for free, minus shipping and handling.
GPU Issue:
Currently I have a gtx 960 and I want to upgrade, I really like the idea of sticking with NVidia for dealing with graphics on Linux (RTX 2060 Super) as AMD doesn’t have a good track record on Linux. Really wanting to go full AMD if I could and from what I read in forum posts and reviews I don’t know if its worth it. Should I stick with the safe bet, or has AMD Linux drivers finally caught up to NVidia? I’ll mainly be using it for compiling software and running/compiling Unreal Engine 4, hence the 32 gigs of ram and upgrading to a processor with more cores and threads later on.
