Advice on KDE for a suitable graphics card ?
by GazBaz from LinuxQuestions.org on (#517PV)
Hi,
I want to Dual boot Linux KDE Plasma 5 and Windows 7 or 10. Linux will be the main day to day Desktop, but there may be a few things I need Windows for.
I am going to use a 1600 AF CPU and 16GB ram. Motherboard = Gigabyte B450M-DS3H
This is going to be used for Home Office type work, Krita, Spreadsheets, Word and a few times a year, video editing for 1080P, but NO Games.
I have tried to find out what Graphics Card I need, but it is very confusing. AMD or NVIDIA ?
As it seems KDE is a bit more fussy over the cards used, I want it to work without any problems on KDE Plasma and to be smooth and reliable ?
Please give me suggestions of a card to use and your opinions on AMD and NVIDIA ? Like I said NO GAMES so I am guessing the card would not be a very expensive one ? 2GB or 4GB ?
Thanks
