I have an Nvidia card myself, so take this with a pinch of salt, but
from what I have heard, the newer AMD cards are what you'll want to get
on Linux so long as your workload doesn't demand something else.
They've got good driver support in the kernel, unlike Nvidia, so they
should work well out of the box. With Nvidia you'll have to choose
between the relatively low performance free drivers, or going through
the moderate hassle of installing the proprietary Nvidia drivers. I
stll have an Nvidia card because I bought it well before AMD's renewed
Linux driver effort.

This depends heavily on what you want to play, but at least I find
myself with more games to play than I have time for. Valve has a
compatibility tool called Proton (or Steam Play) that lets you play
many of Steam's Windows games on Linux, in addition to the ones that
work on Linux natively. A game's Steam page will indicate whether it
will run on Linux natively, and if not, you can check
https://protondb.com for the Proton-compatibility status of a given
title.
