Hello there. This is my first post here. I'm opening this issue because I want to know what video board is recommended by Garuda users. Atm I have a Nvidia GTX 1060 6Gb, but I have issues to use Wayland, and I really desire to use it. So, I want to buy a new video card from AMD. What video card from AMD you have and how satisfied are You with it. I will use it for gaming, and for software development using Vulkan?
