I really wanted to avoid nvidia and the proprietary drivers issue,
especially considering I kept my current card for more than ten years,
lol.

I ended up purchasing the AMD Radeon RX580 with 8GB. It's this card,
but I found it new on eBay for less than $300.

I was also considering the RX570 because it had four DisplayPort
adapters and the RX580 has only two, but this card was virtually the
same price and includes 8GB.

Hoping I made a wise choice...

Thanks,
Alex
