From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Depending on where you live a 6700 XT or 6750 XT might be available at a similar price. They only come with 12 GB VRAM and lack RDNA3 features like AV1 encode, but both models are quite a bit faster than a 7600 XT.

They're both around $330 where I'm at. The performance jump from my 1070ti to 6700xt is around 30% and 38% to a 6750xt. I figure the better option was a newer card with the extra vram. Either one seems to be a good upgrade for me.
