I “upgraded” from a GTX1650 to a GTX1060 last year, at least is slightly more powerful an has more VRAM, but it feels like the older architecture dates it, especially on Linux
This is part of it for me, haven’t updated in a while (slow-ish shared internet) and then Arch moved the driver to the AUR. At this point I’d need to find a better distro, but aside from not finding one I like (with a better update structure that doesn’t give me other issues) the GPU will still be a problem (or 2 because proprietary driver).
Me hoping for a hand-me-down Polaris+ GPU to replace my now-legacy 1050Ti:

I don’t feel so bad about my RX 580 now. 😬
