Of course I just bought a 970 xt for a lot a month ago, I did buy RAM before it shot up tho so thats nice. Slowly building a new PC thats not jank on Linux.
Its literally just a GPU and the RAM. I need every other part as my kids are going to continue playing their smaller games on my current build like they do now. I can buy about 1 part a month thats under 200 dollars. I gotta sell one of these servers or something to get the CPU Idk lol I have a power edge r740 I dont really want to let go of but could.
This isn’t a ‘great’ suggestion (and if you got a home server you’re probably aware already), but there’s a ton of cheap PCs right now that aren’t Windows 11 compatible but are still relatively new.
Might not be a bad deal to pick up an mid-tier business PC like an Optiplex or HP or whatever and ‘upgrade’ it with the GPU? As long as the power supply supports it, that is.
I’m looking at one for a family member and its $125 for a pretty decent PC, more so once its running Linux.
I appreciate the suggestion lol I am going to take it slow though. I’ll need time so I can also build a new desk to hold two desktops on too. Its a whole project in the game room that I dont make nearly enough money for. But life, uh, finds a way.

Sounds like you’ve done it. Unless you’ve got an unfotunate wifi card or something, still
