Haven’t built a machine in years, but need a new one so here goes. May as well have some fun and oldest kid is starting to get interested. Suggestions for a case would be good too.
I am getting the Ryzen 7 2700X as a placeholder for a Ryzen 9 3xxxX later.
The main question is what would be a decent gpu for the linux host and I am aware of the reset bug, in the 5700XT below, which I believe has a kernel patch available somewhere.
The host might be pushed to do some video editing, image work, nothing major really. I’m just playing around with this thing, but do need it to be a “jack of all trades”.
Located in Ireland.
Many thanks.

For a Mesa “set it and forget it,” nothing beats the RX 580 8GB. (but if you need better hardware H264 encoding like NVENC, you basically need a 1660 SUPER)
Thanks. Any issues with having two cards from the one manufacturer? My natural tendency is to go for the and, but with an and card going through to the VM, might I encounter difficulties with drivers?
