Every year Linux gets better. No monetization, no obligations to shareholders, no limitations. Proton keeps improving, drivers keep improving, multiplatform keeps getting more popular. Linux is a tool build for the user, and the longer it lives the better it gets.

Meanwhile Windows keeps getting worse. It's not a product for the customer, but the customer is the product. Monetization, tracking, AI, Microsoft accounts, subscriptions... More and more background services, worse user experience, old devices stop working on it...

Eventually the paths will cross and Linux wins. But that's a subjective matter, for me it has already happened, for you it might be yet to come. But for everyone the day will come.

I recently found an Intel based Mac tower at my local ewaste drop off and realized it still works perfectly. I chose to slap Linux Mint (had the bootable USB already made) and it runs beautifully. I upgraded the SSD to a NVME drive I had spare and the ram to 32gb. I swapped the CPU out for the i7 instead of the i5 it came with. I intend to make this a gaming rig so the girlfriend can have a light gaming rig. The games she wants to play are not super demanding but do require a bit more in the ways of a GPU than what came with this machine.

My question is, is it possible to install a graphics card that wasn't made for Apple and use it on Linux? I know it may seem like a dumb question but I tried searching online and I was getting mixed answers. Some were saying yes, but others were saying no. Which brought me to you all.

I have two graphics cards I could install. One is a RTX 2070 Super and the other is the AMD 6800XT. I'm willing to try either.

Any advice and information is greatly appreciated!!!

I use GNOME with CachyOS. My hardware: r7 5700x, RTX 3070, 16GB RAM. Is the difference in fps in games noticeable compared to GNOME and KDE Plasma? Maybe in this case window managers are ideal

So I have an MSI 4070 Super two fan GPU and I have it undervolted in MSI Afterburner and a custom fan curve. In Quake 2 RTX the highest temp it gets to 67c and that temp is stable even after two hours. In Linux Mint within 10-15 minutes, the GPU temp is at 75c. I tried LACT and I can't get it to save any settings with the fan curve and I can't get any overlay programs to work in game. I'd like to undervolt if possible in Linux Mint, but I am also afraid of frying or bricking my card. There are so many videos and guides for undervolting in MSI Afterburner, but not much for Linux and what I have found it deals with using to terminal which makes me even more afraid of bricking my GPU.
