XFX - THICC II Pro AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card
by someone else from LinuxQuestions.org on (#52AMV)
long story longer,
i currently have a k5000 4 port card, which only two folks had any input on when i had a question before, which has been having problems and is only getting older. i am trying to find a replacement. so two questions up front,
from best buy:
XFX - THICC II Pro AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card - Black
Model:RX-55XT8DFDR
SKU:6395411
first question - anyone have experience with this card and linux?
second question -
amd has an ubuntu driver. i use slackware, but does anyone know what (or maybe where) that driver will look for something in ubuntu that is not in slackware, open gl is open gl across any platform right?
and or also, if not the above...
does anyone use a 4 port video card with linux that has a good driver that has had a good experience working with it (installing and also relatively trouble free)?
thank you
