I put my money into the processor (AMD Ryzen 7 3800X) when I bought
this machine, I don't really need powerful graphics, the 710 might've
been the most sensible cheapest option, I don't remember.
If you "don't really need powerful graphics", then you don't really
need the pain
of a premium priced GPU for which fully capable FOSS drivers never
exist, do you?
My recollection is that the GeForce GT 710 with driver built by
rpmfusion provided non-gaming but TV-capable performance through VGA and
HDMI ports at a less-than-premium price. It would be good to have a
build of the recent update.

I have an old machine with a GT720 that recently quit working with the
Nvidia drivers. I was pleasantly surprised that it finally was working
well with the nouveau driver, which simplified updating considerably. I
am presently running Wayland on it, and the main complaint is that I
can't set where a particular window will open consistently. I also have
a more recent machine with a much newer nvidia card, and there nouveau
still hangs (unpredictably), so I am still using the nvidia drivers
there, but I am using Wayland. I have both machines using F39 and KDE.
